Thursday, June 20 at 7:00 PM SALLY MAYES "Now and Then" Sally Mayes is a gal on a mission. She has been doing a very special retrospective series this season, and she's not done yet! The next show, "Now and Then: The Great Big Huge Broadway," is perhaps nearest and dearest to her heart. As she puts it, "Well, I have always been a storyteller, and I love that aspect of what I do the most. I also have a great affection for the opportunities I have been given both on and off Broadway and also in recording, and some of the best arrangements I have done over the years come from that love. I cannot wait to remind people of this stuff, and I am having so much fun!" Sunday, June 23 at 7:00 PM REEVE CARNEY The Grammy-winning singer/songwriter, actor and recent star of Broadway's Hadestown is known for his portrayal of Dorian Gray on Showtime's "Penny Dreadful," Riff Raff in Fox's Rocky Horror Picture Show Reimagining, as well as originating the role of Peter Parker in Julie Taymor/U2's Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark. Featuring selections from his 5-time Independent Music Award-winning album, Youth Is Wasted, as well a few surprises from the Broadway canon and the Great American Songbook, Reeve delivers a one-man-show cabaret that feels more like an invitation-only after-party than a traditional concert performance. Sundays, July 21 and August 4 at 1:00 PM, Wednesday, July 24 and August 7 at 7:00 PM NELSON ASPEN and ALLYSON BRIGGS "Tony Bennett: A Tribute" Nelson Aspen and Allyson Briggs have a new tribute show to the great Tony Bennett who passed away last July at the age of 96. In 2012, after meeting the legendary crooner around Manhattan, Aspen was invited to Bennett's home overlooking Central Park to do a TV segment on his impressive work as a painter. The two spent several hours together, leaving Aspen forever dazzled by not only the star's talents, but insight, humility and hospitality. "Tony Bennett: A Tribute" will feature clips from Aspen's time with the artist born Anthony Dominick Benedetto, reflections on Bennett's humanitarian work, career highlights, and support of young musicians. And, of course, plenty of songs from the great American songbook that Bennett infused with his signature style. Just as Bennett was famous for his duets with other singing stars, Aspen will be joined by Allyson Briggs, renowned bandleader of Manhattan's hottest jazz band, Fleur Seule. Aspen promises it will be an intimate way for audiences to remember Bennett's artistry, life and legacy.
