Michele Lee brought her new concert show - Nobody Does It Like Me, The music of Cy Coleman last night to the RRazz Room at The Prince Theatre in Philadelphia, PA. and Broadwayworld was there.
Ron Abel and Michele Lee created a unique experience as the music of Cy Colman and the stories of Michele's career with the composer were explored in a very intimate way.
Back from her long run in Broadway's WICKED, Ms. Lee presented a new concert spotlighting the music of legendary Cy Coleman, including songs like "Nobody Does it Like Me" and "It's Not Where You Start" from her Tony-nominated performance in the musical Seesaw, along with other magnificent work and some surprises from Coleman's songbook.
One highlight of the show was Michele's interpretation of Broadway's lead female character found in many Coleman musicals. Using a medley of his compositions including "Big Spender", "Rules of the Road" and "I'm Gonna Laugh You Right Out of My Life", Ms. Lee presents, "a loveable woman with a charitable heart."
The show also featurEd Coleman favorites "The Best Is Yet to Come," "Witchcraft" and others, from Sweet Charity to City of Angels and beyond.
A multiple Emmy and Tony-nominated actor, Michele Lee starred in the fourteen year run of CBS's Knots Landing, as well as the Broadway blockbusters How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, Seesaw, Tale of the Allergist's Wife, and WICKED. Michele is the consummate "knock 'em dead" entertainer who enthralls audiences, from stories that tickle the funny-bone to ballads that cut deep into the soul.
