For the 124th Kritzerland show, it's a very personal tribute to the late and great Stephen Sondheim. Producer/host Bruce Kimmel knew Sondheim for over thirty years and produced a significant number of recordings of his work, beginning with the album Unsung Sondheim, which featured mostly never before recorded songs that Sondheim himself suggested.

For the 115th Kritzerland show it's a celebration, the eleventh anniversary of monthly Kritzerland shows. Eleven years of presenting amazing songs sung by an array of the most talented singers around. For the anniversary show, there's a great cast and some surprises, well-known and obscure theater and film songs and a whole lot of happiness and joy.

The fundraiser THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC! is an evening of songs under the stars directed and hosted by Bruce Kimmel, with musical direction by Richard Allen, produced by Kathleen Delaney for the Group Rep, will take place Monday, August 23rd at 8:00 pm and Tuesday, August 24th at 8:00 pm with a dessert buffet to follow catered by Great Grapes.

For the 114th Kritzerland show, it’s the return of LIVE shows. After a year-and-a-half, Kritzerland is back and so happy to perform live again at Feinstein’s Upstairs at Vitello’s. It’s the usual mix of great theater songs, great movie songs, and, as always, some very rare material you won’t be hearing anywhere else.

Kritzerland will present a free concert via Facebook and YouTube, called 'May is Busting Out All Over.'

For the 111th Kritzerland show, it's the most wonderful time of the year (at home) and Kritzerland's annual holiday show. 

For the 110th Kritzerland show and the sixth online show, Kritzerland is doing Premieres and Encores - songs that have never been performed in any of the ten years of shows and a few encores of songs done in the live shows.

The Valley Villagers Choir had to stop rehearsing and performing together when the Covid pandemic hit. But that hasn't stopped their leaders from getting people to keep singing. Founders Eric Andrist and Jeff Rizzo created a 'virtual' division for the choir and recently released their second virtual choir video, this time for Grandparent's Day. 

Kritzerland will celebrate their ten years of producing monthly cabarets with their 109th show THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW, livestreaming this Sunday September 13, 2020. I jumped at the chance to pose a few queries to Beth Malone, Tony nominated for her lead role as author Alison Bechdel in FUN HOME, and, as Angel, seen flying over Prior Walter in ANGELS IN AMERICA.
