Mr. Eakeley
will present his “Best of the Songbook” series, with material from
his Broadway Swinger Vol. 1, Broadway Swinger Vol. 2
cabarets as well as an upcoming concert that he is developing for the
Lincoln Center Library for the Performing Arts. Time Out named
the Broadway Swinger series a Critics’ Pick and “One of the
Best Cabarets in NYC.” Joining Ben on stage is a wonderful jazz trio
led by Music Director James Olmstead on piano. Ben has performed in
four Broadway musicals and has taught voice in Yale University’s Shen
Curriculum for Musical Theatre. He also maintains a private voice
studio in NYC. Ben has performed in many productions at STNJ over the

Kate Baldwin
|
|
Ms. Baldwin
was last seen at STNJ’s Backyard Stage last Fall in two concert
performances titled “A Kind of September: An Evening with Kate
Baldwin”. She has also performed at STNJ in Shakespeare’s Henry
V and performed in the company’s Annual Gala Cabaret. She will be
accompanied by her long-time friend and collaborator, Georgia Stitt.
Ms. Baldwin will perform signature songs from her rich repertoire
that has evolved over the length of her acclaimed career. Hailed as
“the redheaded firecracker” by Stephen Holden of The New York
Times, the performance will include gorgeous music and expert
storytelling from songwriters like Stephen Sondheim, Kander &
Ebb, Jerry Herman and Ms. Stitt. “We suppose there are some things
that Baldwin cannot do, but over the past decade we have yet to see
her be anything but superb,” said Steven Suskin of Playbill.
