SUMMARY:PAMELA CLAY
DESCRIPTION:Fri.\, May 17.  PAMELA CLAY.  Possessing a “power belt\,” solid and confident pitch\, a party-girl charisma\, and a repertoire that broadens what patrons have come to expect as “Gardenia fare\,” Pamela Clay celebrates her 31st wedding anniversary by singing “something for everyone\,” accompanied by her longtime musical director David Moscoe at the piano\, “Catahoula’s Emperor” Lindsay Gillis on guitar\, Vince Tividad on upright bass\, Kendall Kay on drums\, and her artist-musician husband\, Bruce Bermudez\, as guest vocalist.    One can expect the unexpected from this chanteuse who has established herself as the Southland’s premier interpreter of chansons…and Edith Piaf in particular.  (But be forewarned:  “Non\, Je ne Regrette Rien” is NOT the anthem of a sensitive waif or a “wounded sparrow.”)   Ms. Clay has appeared at the John F. Kennedy Center\, the John Anson Ford Theatre\, the Wilshire-Ebell Theatre\, Feinstein’s 54 Below in Manhattan\, and on-screen opposite Tommy Lee Jones.  Fluent in French\, she lived in Paris and Bordeaux for many years\, and performed her self-penned one-woman show\, Toujours l’Amour!\, directed by Chase Matthews\, to sold-out crowds in several Southland venues.  More can be learned at www.PamelaClay.com.

SUMMARY:JOHN CICCOLINI
DESCRIPTION:Fri.\, May 31.  JOHN CICCOLINI continues to inhabit Goombah “Johnny Balboa\,” who began his slightly tarnished yet formidable comeback at The Gardenia in February after “many years of boozing and carousing.” \nJohn Ciccolini’s shows at The Gardenia have become legendary for the humor infusing his impressive command of the material.

SUMMARY:ANDREA MARCOVICCI and MAUDE MAGGART
DESCRIPTION:Sun.\, June 2 at 8 p.m. (Door opens and dinner service begins at 6 p.m.)   ANDREA MARCOVICCI and MAUDE MAGGART present “The Love Songs of WWII.”  Perhaps the most popular of Andrea’s earlier shows and recordings\, “The Love Songs of WWII” has been updated and re-imagined in this third in their series of monthly performances echoing the heady ‘80’s days of the weekly “Marcovicci at Midnight.” \nFrequently introduced as “the Queen of Cabaret\,” Ms. Marcovicci transformed the “cabaret genre\,” has created over 35 nightclub acts at The Gardenia\, and holds the record—an unprecedented 25 seasons—at the legendary Oak Room of The Algonquin Hotel—as well as the distinction of being the Oak Room’s final performer before its closing.  She combines forces with Maude Maggart\, considered by many to be Marcovicci’s heir apparent\, who can boast her own cabaret beginnings at The Gardenia a half generation later.  Our favorite endorsement of Ms. Maggart 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.”  Musical Director is Gerald Sternbach.  More can be learned at andreamarcovicci.com \n

SUMMARY:LAURAL MEADE\, in "Ms. Tucker Will See You Now."
DESCRIPTION:Fri.\, June 14.  LAURAL MEADE\, in “Ms. Tucker Will See You Now.”\nDuring nearly all of 2023\, Laural Meade continued to perfect her rollicking Sophie Tucker show\, tinkering with each iteration to ever more closely approach the asymptote of perfection.  Those in attendance in December who had previously seen the show only in its infancy were moved to remark how seemingly completely different\, how delightful\, and how terrific\, the show now inarguably is.  One longtime Gardenia patron even remarked that this show has become what is “maybe the best show I have ever seen at The Gardenia.” \nAn established member of the theater faculty at Occidental College\, playwright and musical performer Ms. Meade has sung in Southern California venues “both sacred and profane\,” and directs a choir for The Secret City.  Her vocal musicianship has turned heads at The Gardenia Open Mike\, where we were delighted to learn that she has penned this performance piece in which she exposits Sophie Tucker\, “the Last of the Red Hot Mamas\,” arguably the most popular entertainer of Tucker’s day\, in a bawdy cabaret exploration of Tucker’s extraordinary personal life\, career\, and risqué song catalog.   Because its subject “worked Blue\,” the show is constructed not for the faint of heart nor for the pearl-clutching pretenders of easy offence.  Using hilarity as pedagogue’s tool\, Ms. Mead also mobilizes impressive musical forces to allow her audience to conclude the evening “educationally enriched.”  Repeat audience members are now bringing friends—quite the testimonial as word of mouth spreads…… \n  \n

SUMMARY:ANDREA MARCOVICCI (with guest BARBARA BRUSSELL)
DESCRIPTION:Sun.\, July 7 at 8 p.m.  (Door opens and dinner service begins at 6 p.m.)   ANDREA MARCOVICCI presents “A Stephen Sondheim Evening\,” with guest BARBARA BRUSSELL. \nStephen Sondheim (Oscar\, Pulitzer\, and 9-time Tony winner\,) gets the Marcovicci treatment in this fourth in this series of monthly performances which echo the heady ‘80’s days of the weekly “Marcovicci at Midnight.” \nFrequently introduced as “the Queen of Cabaret\,” Ms. Marcovicci transformed the cabaret genre\, has created over 35 nightclub acts at The Gardenia\, and holds the record—an unprecedented 25 seasons—at the legendary Oak Room of The Algonquin Hotel—as well as the distinction of being the Oak Room’s final performer before its closing. \nSupporting Ms. Marcovicci for this evening’s show is Gardenia pal and guest Barbara Brussell\, yet another luminary in the pantheon of “must-see ladies of cabaret.” \nBorn in L.A.\, but raised in Carmel\, Barbara Brussell also made her cabaret debut at The Gardenia in 1985\, having had starring and featured roles in Pirates of Penzance\, A Little Night Music\, The Fantasticks\, and Fiddler on the Roof.  After many Gardenia shows\, she moved to New York in 1994\, becoming the recipient of 1997’s Backstage Bistro Award for “Outstanding Vocalist\,” and seven MAC (Manhattan Association of Cabarets) Award nominations\, including the Award for “Major Artist” in 2008.  She matured into one of cabaret’s most arresting talents\, and her debut CD\, Patterns\, was chosen for In Theater Magazine’s “Top Ten” list for 1998.  Her CD\, Lerner in Love\, was included in Rob Lester’s Top Ten CD’s of 2005.  Stephen Holden of The New York Times praised “the gifted Los Angeles-born cabaret performer…Ms. Brussell\, as a singer and storyteller ready to join the dozen or so performers on cabaret’s top rung…” \nAnd for yet an additional bonus:  musical support is supplied not only by musical director and pianiste extraordinaire Gerald Sternbach\, but also by Nate Light on bass and Danica Pinner on cello.  Although on its face the combination of piano\, cello\, and bass seems (and is) unconventional for a contemporary trio\, it also produces an uncommonly effective “goosebump experience.”  Come dare to have your bumps goosed.

SUMMARY:LEATA GALLOWAY
DESCRIPTION:Fri.\, July 19.  LEATA GALLOWAY.  Those who have been long-time Gardeniaphiles should be as excited as we are with the news that Leata Galloway returns to The Gardenia.  One of the elite performers at The Gardenia in the 1980’s\, Miss Galloway and The Gardenia discovered each other during her engagement in Sophisticated Ladies at the Shubert Theatre.  Those who attended her Gardenia shows were privileged to have been in the audience—as were scouts from NBC who were as impressed as we were—and booked her on The Johnny Carson Show.  Attending one of her performances at The Gardenia\, the brilliant late jazz critic Leonard Feather declared her a jazz singer “beyond category\,” and she counts among her many impressive accomplishments having been in the original Broadway company of Hair\, having sung “Electric Blues” on the film adaptation of Hair\, having sung two songs on-screen in the film\, Cotton Comes to Harlem\, and having sung behind Peggy Lee on tour. Miss Galloway’s many recordings are gems worth seeking out—AND—she laughs\, “having given up smoking\, [my] voice is clearer and brighter than ever!  If only Mr. Feather could hear [me] now!” \n
