Broadway veteran, concert, recording artist and MAC award winner Rosemary Loar brings “Close Enough For Love” to the Laurie Beechman Theater on February 16th. Loar explores all the daunting, daring, tear jerking and thrilling faces of middle age courting, sparking and love. Her show includes standards from The Great American Songbook, originals and inventive jazz arrangements of pop gems. Rosemary’s long time collaborator Frank Ponzio will be on piano and music direction, the award winning Tom Hubbard will be on acoustic bass, special musical guest, John DiPinto, will be on accordion and the “Cabaret Whisperer” Barry Kleinbort will direct. “...A rare combination of jazz vocalist and dramatic actress. Cabaret Scenes- April 2022” “...the one-woman versatility of Rosemary Loar. She is an effervescent soprano, a seasoned theater performer, a jazz bird, vivacious, funny and likeable.” Elizabeth Ahlfors- Cabaret Scenes "She knows how to caress a ballad and belt the blues. Best of all is Loar’s personal appeal. She is vivacious and funny, gamely teasing both her accompanist and her audience" -Times Square Chronicles
