Direct from her historic sold out concert at the Gold Coast's Drake Hotel Grand Ballroom, where she became the first entertainer to perform at the legendary hotel, and heralded as "The Cabaret Queen of Chicago," by both the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun-Times and Skyline, the legendary
Denise Tomasello, will be making her solo concert debut at The Skokie Theatre, 7924 Lincoln Ave, Skokie, Illinois, on Saturday, May 28th at 8pm. Tickets for this highly anticipated special event are $30 and can be obtained online at SkokieTheatre.org or calling
847.677.7761.
This marks Tomasello's first north suburban concert in over two years since her triumphant SRO concert at The Metropolis Performing Arts Center and her first Skokie full-length concert since she headlined with
Jackie Mason at Centre East.
The recipient of Chicago Cabaret Professional Gold Coast Award and winner of the After Dark Award for "Outstanding Cabaret Performer," Tomasello reunites with long-time musical director and accompanist, maestro Russ Long, for an evening of her fan-favorite signature songs, classics from the great American songbook and show-stopping Broadway numbers. They will be joined by
Jim Cox on bass and Phil Grateau on drums.
>From belting a Broadway show-stopper, to her spine-tingling delivery of an emotional ballad, or her sultry way with a jazz standard, Denise possesses a rare and unique musical versatility, putting her indelible stamp on every song she sings. And the way she engages the audiences with her spontaneous, sharp, quick-witted repartee, Denise makes every performance a unique and special experience. A true original, nothing compares to a performance by the exhilarating Tomasello, who is one of the most talked about and exciting performers around with the Chicago Tribune exclaiming "let's make one thing clear about Densie Tomasello: She was cabaret before cabaret was cool."
She has performed with show biz icons Don RIckles,
Alan King, and
Jackie Mason, and has appeared on the nation's top nightspots and stages: New York's Town Hall and Eights Eights; The Cinegrill, The Gardenia and Rose Tatoo in Los Angeles; and the Tatou-
Beverly Hills. She has also been a frequent headliner in Miami, Dallas, and Washington D.C.
One of Chicago's legendary, and most sought after performers, Denise most recently sold out The Auditorium Theatre in their Chicago Legends concert. She has also sold out every venue and club she has played at in Chicago: The Chicago Theatre, Park West, The Empire Room, The Pump Room, Davenport's, .Georges and an unprecedented and record-breaking six-year engagement at Sages at the landmark Churchill Hotel in the Gold Coast and a two-year run at The Fairmont's Metropole Room..
Denise Tomasello is a must-see, one of a kind, special performer. Witness first-hand why California's Orange County Register calls Denise and her one-woman concerts "the best show of its kind in the country!"
