Invisible Theatre presents

 

Made possible in part Through the Generous Support of 

The Elizabeth and Milton Kahn Philanthropic Fund

with additional support by

Gail Fitzhugh

 

 

 Internationally acclaimed musical troubadour and "The Crown Prince of NY Cabaret" (New York Times) Steve Ross will be joined by guest artists NY pianist Michael Lavine and Tucson's own Katherine Byrnes in a two-piano celebration of the words and music of Noël Coward and Cole Porter. This spirited and brilliant musical revue devised by Steve Ross, Michael Lavine and Michael Sommers gives audiences a glimpse into the irreverent wit and magnificent artistry of two creative titans of 20th century musical theater. "Noël and Cole" showcases standards such as "Night and Day," "I Get a Kick Out of You," "I Love Paris," "Mrs. Worthington," "If Love Were All," Mad Dogs and Englishmen," "I`ll See You Again," and, of course, "Let's Do It." Cole Porter established his dominance as one of the greatest composers and songwriters of his generation, while the infamous wit of Noël Coward lead to his inspired work as a playwright, composer, director, actor and singer. Joining these two masters along with the incomparable musical talent of Steve Ross, Michael Lavine and Katherine Byrnes creates the ultimate atmosphere for "A Marvelous Party," where "Anything Goes!".

 

"Steve Ross is the suavest of all male cabaret performers."

"LAST OF THE RED HOT LOVERS"
by Neil Simon

"Comedy that will  linger with you even when the laughs become and appreciative memory"

Middle-aged Barney Cashman, who married his high school sweetheart, wants to have one sweeping extra-marital romantic fling in his tranquil, faithful,  marriage before life passes him by. On three different afternoons, he brings women to his mother's apartment while she's at the hospital doing work. Behind plentiful laughs is a tender portrayal of a decent fellow who just can't succeed in sinning.

Friday and  Saturday at 7:30pm
Saturday and Sunday at 2:00pm

ALL PERFORMANCES AT
CABARET  THEATRE - 330 S Scott Ave. Tucson, AZ
