The show is the third installment of New York Cabaret's Greatest Hits, Producer Stephen Hanks' new Cabaret Life Productions Series at the Metropolitan Room (the Associate Producer of the Series is Fr.

What Would Petula Do? is a cabaret show where you can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares. In 75 minutes, the show exuberantly follows the course of Petula Clark's extraordinary career from her early, popular recordings in the 1940s, through her mega-stardom in the 1960s, to her award-winning performances in film and on Broadway right up to the 1990s.
