A Nonprofit Cabaret Venue

Join us for a swingin’ salute to the fabled composer, Alec Wilder, who wrote song hits for Sinatra – now in its 32nd year!  Intriguing and unforgettable, Wilder’s best-loved songs will be sung by luminaries from the worlds of Broadway, jazz and cabaret.  Produced annually by The Friends of Alec Wilder and presented by Aaron Gandy, this year’s concert focuses exclusively on the pop songs that made him a favorite composer of Tony Bennett, Mabel Mercer and Peggy Lee, as well works from his many musical theatre scores for stage and TV. A 5-piece jazz combo and a slew of Broadway favorites will make this an unforgettable evening!

Hosted by Klea Blackhurst (Hazel, The Nutty Professor!)
