Bistro and MAC Hanson Award winning vocalist, Lucille Carr-Kaffashan, returns to Don’t Tell Mama this spring with a new cabaret show, How The Light Gets In. This show features the work of male singer-songwriters who use their art to give voice to the feelings and experiences that men are typically discouraged from expressing in our society, including artists Billy Joel, John Legend, Bruce Springsteen, Leonard Cohen, Darius Rucker and others.
Performances of How The Light Gets In are scheduled at Don’t Tell Mama, on Saturday, April 27 at 7 pm and on Thursday, June 6 at 7 pm. The singer will be joined by her award-winning band members, music director Jeff Cubeta on piano and back-up vocals, Sean Harkness on guitar and Matt Scharfglass on bass. Direction is by David Hilder.
In 2017, Carr-Kaffashan won a Bistro Award for Outstanding Theme Show for Unwritten, Celebrating 21st Century Female Singer-Songwriters. Her two prior shows were explorations of the music of The Beatles and of 1970s female singer-songwriters. She performed for a number of years in the regional theater productions of the New Jersey-based Entertainers Theater before developing her first cabaret act. Since her Don’t Tell Mama debut in 1999, she has presented eleven different one-woman shows at clubs in New York City, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
