Wonder no more. After delving into the works of Irving Berlin, Frank Loesser and Jerome Kern as well as the songs associated with Fred Astaire, the World War II era and the silver screen, the singing actress will apply her renowned interpretative skills to the songbook of Rodgers and Hart.
Marcovicci will debut Marcovicci Sings Rodgers & Hart July 10-29 at the Empire Plush Room, located in the York Hotel in San Francisco. She will play Thursday-Saturday evenings at 8 PM and Sundays at 5 PM.
The songwriting team of Richard Rodgers (music) and Lorenz Hart (lyrics) penned the scores for A Connecticut Yankee, The Boys From Syracuse, On Your Toes, Babes in Arms, I Married an Angel, By Jupiter and Pal Joey.
