Big Thunder has announced the addition of Kimberly Faye Greenberg and Nikki MacCallum to the ##YesAllWomen Raise Your Voice concert on Friday Nov 21. Kimberly Faye Greenberg (Off-Bway: Danny and Sylvia, Ghostlight, One Night With Fanny Brice) recently released the cast album of Fabulous Fanny, songs and stories of Fanny Brice. Her one-woman show, Fabulous Fanny, has enjoyed regional success, with critics hailing her natural comedic talent and warmly entertaining portrayal of the classic comedienne. Cabaret starlet Nikki MacCallum was recently seen at Below 54 in her solo show 'Familiar Things, Nikki MacCallum sings the music of Kander & Ebb' after a sold-out run at the Duplex. Her first cabaret show 'Matchmaker, Matchmaker, I'm Willing to Settle' garnered her a MAC nomination in 2011. Ms. Greenberg and Ms. MacCallum will join Wunderkind's Tim Realbuto and Wicked's Jenna Leigh Green in the #YesAllWomen Raise Your Voice concert being presented at The Tank on Friday November 21 at 9:30pm.
