Susan Neuffer Appears at Don’t Tell Mama on Friday, March 4 and Sunday, March 13, with An Elpee’s “Worth of Todd”

Singer-actress Susan Neuffer returns to the cabaret stage with a new show, An Elpee’s Worth of Todd at Don’t Tell Mama, on Friday, March 4 at 7:00 PM and Sunday, March 13 at 4:00 PM. Musical direction is by MAC award-winner Gerry Dieffenbach on piano and vocals, with Wendy Russell on vocals and Louis Tucci on bass. Lennie Watts directs.

The show is a tribute to the multi-talented Todd Rundgren whose  best-known songs—“I Saw the Light,” “Hello, It’s Me” and “Can We Still Be Friends,” and the novelty song “Bang on the Drum All Day”— suggest that he is a gifted pop songwriter, as well as a musical maverick.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the album “Something/Anything,” Rundgren’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. To celebrate, Neuffer presenta tuneful Rundgren gems as well as songs from “Todd-adjacent” artists.

Once he had a taste of success with “Something/Anything,” Rundgren abandoned stardom to pioneer in electronic music and progressive rock, music video, computer software and Internet music delivery as well. Rundgren has also been a successful producer of other artists, including Meat Loaf, Grand Funk Railroad, Patti Smith and the New York Dolls.

Cover charge: $20.00 plus a 2-drink minimum. ($5 discount for MAC and SAG-AFTRA) Reservations: 212-757-0788 and www.donttellmamanyc.com.

Don’t Tell Mama is located at 343 West 46th St., NYC
