"Match Game" Favorite Brings New Cabaret Act to Danny's in July

By Andrew Gans
18 Jun 2003

Brett Somers, one of the favorite regular panelists from TV's old "Match Game" game show, will bring her new cabaret show to Danny's Skylight Room Mondays in July.

Somers, who was the top-row center panelist on CBS-TV's long-running "Match Game" program, will offer An Evening With Brett Somers Mondays, July 7, 14, 21 and 28. Show time is 7 PM. The evenings are described as "a musical memoir of a life in and out of show business — the act contains hilarious and poignant moments of romance, marriage, career and, of course, 'Match Game.'" Somers co-wrote the program with Mark Cherry, her musical director and arranger.

Best known for her "Match Game" appearances as well as her stint as Mrs. Oscar Madison on TV's "The Odd Couple," Brett Somers has also appeared in the films "Getting There," "The Great American Beauty Pageant," "Bus Riley's Back in Town" and "A Rage to Live." Her stage credits include Maybe Tuesday, Happy Ending, Mine Prince Mine King, Night Fishing in Beverly Hills, The Country Girl and a tour of Seven Year Itch with Art Carney and Lee Remick.

"Match Game" is popular again due to its exposure on The Game Show Network.

Danny's Skylight Room is located in Manhattan at 346 West 46th Street. Reservations may be made by calling (212) 265-8133. There is a $15 music charge and a $10 food-drink minimum.
