Façade Fantastique!
Featuring Diane Van Deurzen and Lisa Otey at Club Congress
(Tucson, AZ) A benefit concert will be held on Thursday, February 11, 2010 at Hotel Congress’ Club Congress, featuring the sweet vocals of Diane Van Deurzen and Lisa Otey, voted Best Entertainer in Tucson Lifestyle and Tucson Home magazines. There will be a live and silent auction including restaurant gift certificates, wine, merchandise, art and entertainment items. Proceeds from this event will be used to match the Façade Improvement Matching Grant awarded to Beowulf Alley Theatre by the City of Tucson as well as support the annual fund of our 501(c)(3) organization. Improvements to the theatre include an illuminated marquee, redesigned entrance with exterior box office, new energy efficient display windows, and new lighting.
Doors will open at 7:00 p.m. Tickets may be purchased, and donations may be made, through Beowulf Alley Theatre online at http://www.beowulfalley.org/html/facade_fantastique.html or by phone at (520) 882-0555. Prices are $19 in advance or $24 at the door. There will be a cash bar. Appetizers and food may be purchased at The Cup Café.
Why not spend an evening being entertained by two of Tucson’s most talented artists? A dynamic duo - a perfect blend of hot jazz, sultry blues and cabaret. They take their act all over the world, performing at festivals, clubs and theatres but they call Tucson “home.” Their new CD, "Wild Women," celebrates 100 years of classic blues women. Diane is also a member of Lisa Otey and the Desert Divas. Lisa has been inducted into the Tucson Music Hall of Fame, the Arizona Blues Hall of Fame and appeared on the Grammy-nominated CD, "Ladies Man", by Pinetop Perkins. Lisa and Diane co-produced Lisa's 8th CD, "Trio", and Diane's debut CD, "I Never Knew," on Lisa's label, Owl's Nest Productions.
"Whenever these two artists perform together, people comment on their easy rapport and emotional connection. Otey's piano and vocals are hot and steamy. Van Deurzen sings sweetly. Together they blend like a musical cappuccino with extra foam on top." -Chuck Graham
