“SINATRA NIGHT” BENEFIT HOLMDEL,
NEW JERSEY – Holmdel Theatre Company is pleased to announce that local
resident and entertainer Lou Kady will kick off the 2004 summer season with
two “Sinatra Night” benefit performances at the Duncan Smith Theater on
Friday and Saturday evenings, June 4th and 5th.
With accompaniment by The Grants “PLUS”, the evening will feature a
wonderful evening of old favorites sung cabaret style by Lou in a
“Frank” manner. Although
a practicing attorney by profession, Lou is also a familiar entertainer to
audiences throughout New Jersey and beyond, including venues such as Napa
Valley, California; Vail and
Beaver Creek, Colorado: various cruise ships and Asbury Park’s Stone Pony.
According to Lou, he does not try to imitate Frank Sinatra, but as one
reviewer has noted, Lou “captures the spirit and sophistication of
Sinatra” as he performs. “The
intimate setting of The Duncan Smith Theater will only enhance my
communication with the audience,” adds the singer. Lou’s
desire to do these benefit performances at the Duncan Smith Theater has other roots beyond just wanting to support a deserving community
organization such as the Holmdel Theatre Company. More specifically, the
Kadys have been backdoor
neighbors of the Smith family in Holmdel since the late 1960’s and their
children grew up together. Moreover,
there is a college and fraternal bond as Lou, Wendell Smith and his son Duncan
all graduated from Johns Hopkins University and were members of the same
fraternity. According
to Lou, “ I have been wanting
to do something special for the
Duncan Smith Theater for a long time and these performances will be
particularly meaningful for me because of my connections to the Smith family
and to Duncan. I urge all of
our friends and neighbors and other members of the community to come
out to support this worthy cause and to enjoy an evening of nostalgia and song
with me.” Tickets for the Sinatra Night Benefit are $25 each and may be reserved by calling (732) 946 0427. Seating is limited and advance reservations are recommended, Visa and Mastercard are accepted. Curtain time is 8pm. Doors open one half hour earlier. The Duncan Smith Theater is fully air conditioned. For directions please call or visit www. holmdeltheatrecompany.com . For more information about Lou Kady visit www.loukady.com. Also, please mark your calendars for the rest of our 2004 summer season: Dancing at Lughansa and Antigone. |
