As BroadwayWorld previously reported, Sutton Foster has cancelled her last week of performances Cafe Carlyle due to a family emergency - luckily, Tony-winner Christine Ebersole was willing to step in. Not a bad understudy. Check out a look back at Ebersole performing last night below!
Ebersole's performances continue at Cafe Carlyle tonight September 27 and tomorrow, September 28 (8:45). Reservations can be made at www.thecarlyle.com or by phone at 212.744.1600.
Originally opened in 1955, Café Carlyle is New York City's bastion of classic cabaret entertainment, a place where audiences experience exceptional performers at close range in an exceedingly elegant setting. Since composerRichard Rodgers moved in as The Carlyle's first tenant, music has been an essential part of The Carlyle experience. No place is that more evident than in the Café Carlyle.
Café Carlyle is known for talents including Woody Allen, who regularly appears on Monday evenings to play with thE Eddy Davis New Orleans jazz band. For three decades, Café Carlyle was synonymous with the legendary Bobby Short, who thrilled sell-out crowds for 36 years. His spirit lives on through the music at Café Carlyle.
Continuing the tradition of the 1930s supper club, Café Carlyle features original murals created by French artist Marcel Vertès, the Oscar-winning art director of the 1952 Moulin Rouge.
