Tony Nominee Judy Kuhn Brings RODGERS, RODGERS & GUETTEL to Feinstein's at the Nikko Today

Hotel Nikko San Francisco and Michael Feinstein welcomes the four-time Tony Award nominee, Judy Kuhn, to Feinstein's at the Nikko for two performances of her acclaimed show, Rodgers, Rodgers & Guettel, today, Friday, June 3 at 8 p.m. and tomorrow, Saturday, June 4 at 7 p.m.

Kuhn's new show celebrates a century of American song from one remarkable family: Richard Rodgers, his daughter Mary Rodgers and her son Adam Guettel. When the show premiered to a sold-out crowd at Lincoln Center's American Songbook, the New York Times called Kuhn a "top of the line singer [who] portrayed the lineage of the composer Richard Rodgers as more than bloodline, [but] a proudly romantic musical tradition." Rodgers, Rodgers & Guettel features musical direction and arrangements by Todd Almond.

Tickets for Judy Kuhn range in price from $45 - $65 and are available now by calling 866.663.1063 or visiting www.ticketfly.com.
