According to press notes "If orphan Annie is the one recollection you have of Andrea … then you are in for a glorious surprise. Although embedded forever in our hearts as the red-headed orphan in the red dress with the big belt voice - Andrea has continued her extraordinary career on and off the Broadway stages with a unique talent, perspective and energy. In her show she revisits some of her favorite Broadway musical memories from the many shows she's starred in and she takes us on a great journey with her very entertaining and surprising, backstage stories … she also reveals her natural musical instincts in contemporary pop and jazz and even teases us with hints of Broadway roles yet to come."
In addition to her Tony nominated role as Annie, Andrea McArdle was also seen on Broadway in Les Miserables, State Fair, Starlight Express and as Belle in Disney's Beauty and the Beast.
The Metropolitan Room is located in Manhattan at 34 West 22nd Street, between Fifth and Sixth Avenues. There is a $30 cover charge and a two-drink minimum. Call (212) 206-0440 for reservations or visit www.metropolitanroom.com.
