Berlin to Broadway: The Songs of Kurt Weill

First Unitarian Church, 90 Main St., Worcester

508-757-2708

A one-woman show by actress-singer Lee Dratfield (with Nat Needle, pianist). $8 donation to benefit the Helen A. Bowditch Health Center at Elm Park Community School, a program of the Family Health Center of Worcester.

Lee Dratfield, actress and cabaret artist, recaptures the unforgettable songs of composer Kurt Weill - songs and music from the smoky clubs and theaters of raffish Berlin in the early 1920's and 30's. The show then moves on to Weill's music during the golden age of the broadway musical theater in the 1940's and 50's. Hear the sardonic bitter songs, the romantic ballads, and the up-tempo melodies as singer-actress Lee Dratfield brings them to vivid life.

Friday, June 1, 7:30pm.
