Tonight, October 9 at 8:00 PM, Martinis Above Fourth Table + Stage and Sher Krieger Events are presenting Karen Giorgio in "5 Times A Lady: Bette, Barbra, Judy, Ella, Billie - Their Songs, Their Stories."

San Diego favorite Karen Giorgio takes the stage again at MA4 with her all new show, bringing her own vocal stylings of Barbra Streisand, Ella Fitzgerald, Bette Midler, Billie Holiday and Judy Garland songs. Karen, with her wit, charm and immediate audience rapport, will delight the crowd with the stories behind these songs and the lives of these Lady Legends. The fabulous trio accompanying Karen includes the talented Bryan Verhoye on piano, well-known bassist Glen Fisher, and the unique flair of Adrienne Nims on saxophone and flute.

Karen Giorgio, born in New York, began her musical career at age seven learning piano and training as an opera singer. By her tenth birthday, the lure of Broadway brought her into the limelight with the lead role as Francie in "A Tree Grows In Brooklyn" at summer stock and Off-Broadway productions. Moving to California as a teen, she starred as Julie in "Carousel" at Hollywood High School and soloed with the Hollywood Symphony Orchestra at the Hollywood Bowl.

After raising two children Karen began her globe-trotting performing career on the finest cruise ships and hotels throughout the world. Karen has delighted audiences in Scandinavia, Europe, Japan, Mariana Islands, the Caribbean, Bermuda, Canada and America.

After a successful run of her autobiographical show, "Trains, Boats & Planes, Oh My!" at Martinis Above Fourth Table + Stage in San Diego, the Gardenia Room in Los Angeles, the Arthur Newman Theatre in Palm Desert and other venues, Karen has created a new cabaret show. "5 Times A Lady" presents her own vocal interpretations of Barbra Streisand, Ella Fitzgerald, Bette Midler, Billie Holiday and Judy Garland. Karen's "melodic storytelling" talent brings life to the stories behind the songs and lives of these Lady Legends.

Doors open at 6:00 PM. Tickets are $20 - $30 plus a $15 food and beverage minimum. Purchase tickets online at http://www.martinisabovefourth.com.

Martinis Above Fourth Table + Stage, San Diego's premiere live music venue and supper club, is located in the heart of Hillcrest at 3940 Fourth Avenue, 2nd Floor, San Diego, CA 92103. For more information, visit www.martinisabovefourth.com and www.sherkriegerevents.com.
