Dorian Woodruff presents: The Lyrics of Alan and Marilyn Bergman
October 24th
Pangea
Broadway World Cabaret Award nominee Dorian Woodruff returns to Pangea with a celebration of the lyrics of Alan and Marilyn Bergman and to the music created with some of the greatest composers of our time including Marvin Hamlisch, Dave Grusin, and Johnny Mandel, to name a few, on October 24th at 7:00 p.m. at Pangea, New York City's cozy downtown club. (Ticket link HERE.)
Woodruff grew up listening to the classic tunes to be presented in his program. He had a great appreciation for the compositions, but it wasn’t until 2006, when he took a class at the Nashville Jazz Workshop, that he fell in love with these beautiful songs. Among the songs that captured Dorian's attention were Where Do You Start? Cinnamon and Clove, Nice and Easy, Every Now and Then, The Way We Were, and many more that will be featured in this tribute show that Broadway World correspondent Ricky Pope reviewed warmly and with enthusiasm HERE.
