Description
As stunning visually as she is vocally, singer/actress Karen Akers is universally considered this generation's "Cabaret Goddess." Just as highly regarded in the theatre (nominated for a Tony in Nine) and in films (The Purple Rose of Cairo, Heartburn), she's never been more captivating than in this live concert. "The quintessential cabaret art singer..." -THE NEW YORK TIMES "I like to tell stories," says Akers. She personalizes her memorable repertoire (from masters like Sondheim, Brel, Peter Allen, Andrew Lloyd Webber to newcomers whose names you'll want to remember) into remarkable mini-dramas of love and life... universal enough to relate to all of us and individual enough to be hers alone. V.I.E.W.

"Her stage presencee and voice are addictive... An intimacy that takes your breath away!" THE WASHINGTON TIMES"The quintessential cabaret art singer..." THE NEW YORK TIMES As beautiful to look at as she is to listen to, Karen Akers is universally acknowledged as the "Cabaret Goddess" of our generation. A unique performer - "I tell stories," she says about herself - Ms. Akers is seen here at her most luminous and captivating. Singing songs by Sondheim, Brel, Peter Allen, Andrew Lloyd Webber and several newcomers, Akers lights up the screen the way she has been consistently lighting up stages across the country. #1314 - 59 min
