MARY CLEERE HARAN SINGS DORIS DAY

FEINSTEIN’S AT LOEWS REGENCY

PRESENTS

MARY CLEERE HARAN

“SINGS DORIS DAY”

OCTOBER 16 – 27

FEINSTEIN’S AT LOEWS REGENCY, the nightclub proclaimed “Best of New York” by New York Magazine and “an invaluable New York institution” by The New York Post, will continue their Fall 2007 season with the return engagement of MARY CLEERE HARAN from October 16 – 27. The world premiere of her new show “Mary Cleere Haran Sings Doris Day” will celebrate the movies and music of the biggest female box office attraction in Hollywood history. All shows are at the Regency Hotel (540 Park Avenue at 61st Street).

The famously private legend refuses to speak about her remarkable career. Mary is one of the few people to have interviewed her: she wrote and produced the highly acclaimed PBS documentary, “Doris Day: A Sentimental Journey.” Mary did extensive interviews with Day herself, as well as with some of the star’s friends and fans: actor Tony Randall, film critic Molly Haskell, writer John Updike and Day’s son Terry Melcher. For her show at Feinstein’s, Mary will not only sing Doris’s praises, but will recount the time she spent with the star.

Mary will be performing songs from such films as The Man Who Knew Too Much (“Que Sera Sera”), Love Me or Leave Me (“It All Depends On You” and “Shakin’ The Blues Away”), Jumbo (“Why Can’t I”) and April in Paris (“That’s What Makes Paris Paree”), in addition to selections from the albums Day by Day (“I Remember You”) and Latin For Lovers (“Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps”). She will be joined by Musical Director Don Rebic on piano, Chip Jackson on bass and Jim Hirschman on guitar. The show is directed by Richard-Jay Alexander.

Doris Day, born Doris von Kappelhoff on April 3, 1924, remains unequaled as the only entertainer who has ever triumphed in movies, recordings, radio, and television. As America’s favorite girl-next-door she projected the kind of wholesome image that led Oscar Levant to quip, “I knew Doris Day before she was a virgin.” But Doris Day’s legacy as a great singer and gifted actress, defies definition. According to Haran, “Doris Day was a profound artist in suburban mom’s clothing.”

FEINSTEIN’S AT LOEWS REGENCY will play the following schedule: Tuesday through Saturday at 8:30 PM with late shows on Friday and Saturday at 11:00 PM. All shows have a $60.00 cover and a $40.00 minimum. Jackets are suggested but not required. FEINSTEIN’S AT LOEWS REGENCY is located at 540 Park Avenue at 61st Street in New York City.

THE NEW YORK NIGHTCLUB DEBUT

OF TV AND STAGE STAR

 

LYNDA CARTER

 

OCTOBER 30 – NOVEMBER 3

 

FEINSTEIN’S AT LOEWS REGENCY, the nightclub proclaimed “Best of New York” by New York Magazine and “an invaluable New York institution” by The New York Post, will continue their Fall 2007 season with the New York nightclub debut of TV and stage star LYNDA CARTER from October 30 – November 3. All shows are at the Regency Hotel (540 Park Avenue at 61st Street).

 

The show comes to New York after sold-out runs in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Chicago. Lynda brings her own energy and dynamic voice to songs such as “Summertime,” “Can’t Help Lovin’ Dat Man,” “The Way You Look Tonight,” “Fever,” “My Heart Belongs to Daddy,” “Crazy,” “Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover,” and “Put the Blame on Mame.” She will be joined by a five piece band led by Music Director Sam Kriger.

 

LYNDA CARTER, after being crowned Miss World-USA in 1973, outdistanced hundreds of other actresses for the leading role in “Wonder Woman.” Carter went on to produce and hosted a series of five Emmy-winning television network variety specials featuring her singing and dancing, appearing with guest stars like Ray Charles, Kenny Rogers, George Benson, Merle Haggard and Tom Jones. More recently, she has starred or guest starred in dozens of films and television series, including “Smallville” and the films Dukes of Hazzard and Sky High. Her recent stage credits include appearing as “Mama Morton” in the West End production of Chicago. She also performed at Chicago’s 10th Anniversary on Broadway celebration at the Ambassador Theatre in New York, alongside other stars Ann Reinking, Bebe Neuwirth, Joel Grey, Chita Rivera, Brooke Shields and Melanie Griffith.

 

An accomplished singer, Carter showed a talent for music since her early childhood. She co-wrote several songs on her upcoming album and made frequent appearances as a singer during her career, including performances at London’s Palladium, the MGM Grand and Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas, and highly-rated television shows, including “Lynda Carter’s Variety Special” and “Lynda Carter: Encore.”
