Peter Mac to Play Judy Garland in THE LOST EASTER SPECIAL, 4/8

Judy Garland's The Lost Easter Special, starring tribute artist Peter Mac, currently showing April 6-14 at 8 p.m. at the new Peter Mac Showroom inside The French Market at 7985 Santa Monica Boulevard, Suite 104, West Hollywood, Calif., has added two shows on Easter Sunday, April 8, at 1 and 7 p.m.

Everyone remembers Judy Garland's classic 1963 CBS Christmas special, but what about her "lost" Easter Special from 1967? While rummaging through her infamous trunk Judy stumbles upon the footage so pristine you will feel like Judy and her kids are performing right in front of your eyes! That's right, her kids (now teenagers) Liza, Lorna and Joey are performing with her as well as her bosom buddy and everyone's favorite Golden Girl, Bea Arthur. With Musical direction by Bryan "Mort Lindsey" Miller and featuring songs from Judy's Classic film "Easter Parade" as well as her signature hits, Peter Mac plays Judy Garland live on stage.

April 20-28 at 8 p.m., Peter Mac will present "Judy at Carnegie Hall," in which he celebrates the 51st Anniversary of Judy Garland's concert by recreating it just as Garland did in 1961. It's  a chance to take relive one of the most famous concerts in musical history from the album that may people consider the best album of all time. Peter Mac once again demonstrates his acclaimed ability to recapture the magic , the humor, and joy of the woman who was unhesitatingly billed, reviewed and accepted as "the world's greatest entertainer." Peter Mac will reproduce the entire Carnegie Hall concert in this evening’s musical program.

Tickets range between $15 And $30 and can be purchased at BrownPaperTickets.com or Goldstar.com. More info is available at http://www.FriendOfJudy.com or by calling (310) 871-7563, or emailing DJ@CabaretDesigner.com.

Mac will be appearing weekly, every Friday and Saturday, as Judy Garland. The tribute artist is renowned for his homage to the rainbow girl, garnering special raves for his determination to bring to life the style, wit and musical legacy of an artist rather than caricature her familiar frailties as a human being. In 2005 Mac was interviewed for the United Kingdom television documentary, Hollywood Goddesses. In once in a lifetime opportunity, Mac took the stage as Garland at New York’s historic Palace theatre, recreating moments from Garland’s concert repertoire and the three famous engagements she played at that venue. In 2007, Mac was cast again as Garland along with several other Garland impersonators to perform in Rufus Does Judy at Carnegie Hall.
