CAFÉ CARLYLE SPRING 2014 SEASON

Including Venue Debuts by Tommy Tune, Megan Hilty, Alexa Ray Joel, Dominic Chianese, Lucie Arnaz, Hal Linden, Melissa Manchester; and the Return of Audience Favorites Buster Poindexter (AKA David Johansen, New York Dolls) and Steve Tyrell

The Carlyle, A Rosewood Hotel is pleased to announce the legendary Café Carlyle’s spring 2014 season, which features a number of celebrated artists playing the Café for the first time, as well as the return of audience favorites Buster Poindexter and Steve Tyrell.

Alexa Ray Joel, daughter of American icons Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley, will inaugurate the spring season, bringing her unique artistry to the Café for a two-week run of shows, April 1 through 12. Newsday has described her music as “instantlyhummable” and praised its “carefree braininess.”

Dominic Chianese, best known for his role as Corrado “Junior” Soprano on the critically acclaimed television series “The Sopranos,” has long been a man of many talents. He has performed on and off Broadway, appeared in television and film, and released two albums. Chianese brings his musical talents to the Café for a one-night engagement on April 2.

Another daughter of one of show business’ most prominent couples, Emmy Award-winning singer/actress Lucie Arnaz has forged a distinct career of her own. She has had starring roles on Broadway, television and film, and has won awards including an Emmy, a Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Award and an Outer Critics Circle Award. She brings her new show, Spring is Here, to The Carlyle for a limited engagement, April 15 through 19.

The New Yorker has said, “It’s hard to resist the Colgate-bright charm and joyous energy of Tommy Tune, so why try?” The Broadway legend and nine-time Tony Award-winning singer/actor/dancer, whom Entertainment Weekly has called “the quintessential song and dance man,” will make his venue debut with a two-week engagement, April 22 through May 3.

Following his critically acclaimed holiday show, for which Stephen Holden of The New York Times praised his “unwavering tone of genial bonhomie,” Café Carlyle welcomes back GRAMMY® Award-winner Steve Tyrell for a two-week engagement, May 6 through May 17.

As a founding member of the New York Dolls and in a prolific solo career, David Johansen has been a seminal force in rock and roll, influencing countless singers and bands to this day. Equally rare is Johansen’s having created an alter ego, with a different name and style, and with his own extraordinary achievements: Buster Poindexter, an elegant crooner and R&B balladeer. His late 80s single “Hot Hot Hot” made him a staple on radio charts, MTV and the NYC club scene. He returns to The Carlyle on May 9, following his hit show at the hallowed venue last year.

In a career that has spanned more than 65 years, Hal Linden has run the gambit of music, theater, television and film. Best known for his role as the titular character in the television series “Barney Miller,” Linden’s performances across several disciplines have earned him countless accolades and several awards, including three Emmys and a Tony. He brings his show of pop and jazz standards to Café Carlyle May 20 through May 24.

Megan Hilty first made a name for herself in the role of Glinda in the Broadway production of Wicked. Since then, she’s gone on to have starring roles both onstage and off. Of her performance of Lorelai in the Encores! staging of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Ben Brantley of The New York Times wrote, “Megan Hilty achieves the unlikely feat of wrestling Lorelei from the hands of [Marilyn] Monroe and [Carol] Channing to make the character entirely and originally hers.” Her television credits include NBC’s hit series “Smash,” and, most recently, “Sean Saves the World.” Hilty performs a two-week engagement at the Carlyle, May 27 through June 7, featuring selections from “Smash,” as well as American Songbook and jazz standards.

GRAMMY® Award-winning singer-songwriter Melissa Manchester will bring her new show, You Gotta Love the Life, to the room for a two-week run June 10 through June 21. Manchester may be best known for her international hits “Through the Eyes of Love” and “Don’t Cry Out Loud,” but her legacy as a songwriter goes back much further. Her songs have been recorded by Barbra Streisand, Dusty Springfield, Alison Krauss, Roberta Flack, Johnny Mathis and more. She’s performed on the stage alongside Kelsey Grammer in Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd and on the screen alongside Bette Midler in the film For The Boys. Manchester is currently recording her 20th album, also titled You Gotta Love the Life.

Throughout the season, Woody Allen will continue to perform Monday nights with the Eddy Davis New Orleans Jazz Band.

About Café Carlyle at The Carlyle, A Rosewood Hotel

Originally opened in 1955, Café Carlyle is New York City’s bastion of classic cabaret entertainment, a place where audiences experience exceptional performers at close range in an exceedingly elegant setting. Since composer Richard Rodgers moved in as The Carlyle’s first tenant, music has been an essential part of The Carlyle experience. No place is that more evident than in the Café Carlyle.

Café Carlyle is known for talents including Woody Allen, who regularly appears on Monday evenings to play with the Eddy Davis New Orleans jazz band. For three decades, Café Carlyle was synonymous with the legendary Bobby Short, who thrilled sell-out crowds for 36 years. His spirit lives on through the music at Café Carlyle.

Continuing the tradition of the 1930s supper club, Café Carlyle features original murals created by French artist Marcel Vertès, the Oscar-winning art director of the 1952 Moulin Rouge.
