PAMELA CLAY

Fri., July 21.  PAMELA CLAY.  The late, great, esteemed critic Richard Blackwell once wrote:  “Pamela Clay is the rebirth of Edith Piaf…she is fabulous with a voice that will have you mesmerized…She is Piaf you close your eyes…She has that fabulous, gutsy street sound with the emotions that made Piaf an icon not to be rivaled.  Pamela has everything that makes you want to stand and cheer…the voice of a lion and the emotions of a wounded sparrow…Believe me, she will bring a smile to your face and tears to your eyes!”  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.
