By Press Release

CAPE MAY – Cape May Stage, South Jersey’s premier professional Equity theatre, is delighted to welcome another stellar Broadway performer into their ranks. On Monday, July 25th, Maureen McGovern lends her considerable talents to the Otto and Phoebe Haas Stage. Often called “The Stradivarius Voice”, McGovern has been thrilling audiences in a career that’s spanned over 40 years. Join her as part of Cape May Stage’s Second Stage ‘Women of Broadway’ Series as she enchants audiences at the Robert Shackleton Playhouse in an exclusive concert performance of her new show dangling conversations.
Celebrating the 2nd half of The Great American Songbook, Maureen McGovern’s new show (and late Fall 2011 CD release) will offer audiences classic songs by iconic singers/songwriters including Paul Simon, J.D. Souther, Joni Mitchell, Jimmy Webb, Laura Nyro, Don Henley, Bruce Springsteen, Pete Seeger, Jonatha Brooke, and Burt Bacharach. “Help Me… I Think I’m Falling,” “The Dangling Conversation,” “Faithless Love,” “If I Should Fall Behind,” “An American Tune,” “Anyone Who Had A Heart,” “Time and Love”, and “Turn, Turn, Turn,” are just a few of the classic songs Maureen will include in this concert evening celebrating our lives through song.
McGovern, whose career spans 40 years, includes recordings, concerts, theater, film, television, radio and songwriting, all with a voice that defies categorization. Her PS Classics CD, A Long and Winding Road has been praised by The New York Times as “…a captivating musical scrapbook from the 1960s to the early 70s. Ms. McGovern’s vocal technique is second to none.”
Part of Cape May Stage’s Second Stage Broadway Series, Maureen McGovern will appear Monday, July 25th at 8pm at the Robert Shackleton Playhouse at the corner of Bank and Lafayette Streets in downtown Cape May. Tickets are $75 and include an after party at the Wine Bar at the Washington Inn, Cape May’s new hip, relaxing, contemporary meeting place at the corner of Washington and Jefferson Streets. There, you’ll have a chance to mingle with Ms. McGovern, while enjoying delicious complimentary hors d’oeuvres and a well-stocked cash bar.
