MAUDE MAGGART

September 7 @ 6:00 pm - 10:30 pm

Sat. and Sun., Sept. 7 & 8.  Dinner service begins at 6 p.m.  Showtime is 8 p.m.  MAUDE MAGGART, in “Strangers.”

Part of the fun in anticipating a Maude Maggart show involves the mystery created by knowing the show’s theme, but then guessing how the material and its presentation will support that theme.  “Strangers” is an intriguing topic—a tease on many different levels—but the real (and extended) frisson hits only during the actual show when all reveals itself…and, truth be known, we’d rather not know the “set list” in advance.  It’s Maude, after all…so we know the evening will be spectacular regardless…why chance the frisson with a spoiler alert?

Gerald Sternbach accompanies.  The show then goes to Birdland in New York City, having been birthed, as usual, at The Gardenia.

In addition to her outings at The Gardenia, Miss Maggart has graced the stages of Feinstein’s and The Carlyle and The Algonquin Hotels in New York, attained national radio exposure by appearing with Garrison Keillor at the Town Hall broadcast of A Prairie Home Companion, charmed Keillor so much that he invited her to appear with him again at The Hollywood Bowl, appeared on the cover of Time Out New York, and was the recipient of the Time Out New York MAC Award for “Special Achievement in Cabaret,” AND the MAC Award for “Best Female Debut.”  In 2006, she made her Carnegie Hall debut with Michael Feinstein, sang with John Lithgow on his new children’s CD, broke the summer attendance record at The Colony in Palm Beach, sang with jazz great Dick Haymes and his orchestra at the Oregon Jazz Festival, and was listed by Entertainment Weekly as one of the top 100 Summer picks.  She has also performed in London, Chicago, and Australia. Our favorite endorsement of her comes from Jim Bruce:  “If you have not yet heard Maude Maggart sing, I envy you the moment of discovery because there is nothing quite like the very first time you realize what a talent she is.  Then again there is also nothing quite like every single time after.”
