Akers Sings Porter: Anything Goes

November 11, 2011 at 8:00 pm

One of cabaret's most arresting and successful stars, Karen Akers brings her "note perfect musicality, intelligence, and depth" to the Cole Porter songbook. With her characteristic class and charm, Ms. Akers pays homage to the witty lyricist in songs like "Let's Do It," "Anything Goes," "I Get A Kick Out Of You," and more!

Tony Award nominee (Nine) and Theatre World Award winner (Nine), Karen Akers is no stranger to the stage. She has performed at prestigious venues world-wide, including Carnegie Hall, The Hollywood Bowl, The White House, and New York's premiere nightspots such as Cafe Carlyle and The Oak Room at The Algonquin Hotel. Karen has also recorded ten albums and holds a lifetime achievement award from the Manhattan Association of Cabarets and Clubs.

"Looking like Garbo while singing at one moment with the nonchalance of Dietrich and the next with the passion of Piaf, Karen Akers comes near the top as a cabaret singer." -VARIETY Magazine
