Photos: SONGBOOK SUNDAYS Presents An Elegant A LITTLE TIME WITH CY COLEMAN At Dizzy's Club

The wonderful series (and Broadway World Cabaret favorite) SONGBOOK SUNDAYS continued its second year of shows with two performances on Sunday, November 19th, of A LITTLE TIME WITH Cy Coleman.  This latest iteration of Deborah Grace Winer's Great American Songbook-centric series featured television acting icon and jazz-singing star Linda Purl, Broadway World Award winner Nicolas King, and up-and-coming artist Mar Vilaseca.  WIth an exceptional band of some of the best musicians in the business, the three vocalists and Mistress of Ceremonies Winer filled the night air of Dizzy's Club with the kind of high-quality musical entertainment for which the Songbook Sundays name has become synonymous.

Broadway World Cabaret's Conor Weiss attended the five pm performance with his camera and snapped some elegant shots of the action.   Look at the Dizzy's Club website to see the full calendar HERE and get detailed information on the January 21st SONGBOOK SUNDAYS, which will be dedicated to the music of Frank Loesser HERE.
