“He was the wittiest of all the great American pop composers.”
– Washington Post on Cole Porter
One of the 20th Century’s songwriting geniuses, Cole Porter was the toast of Broadway and Hollywood. Composer of the hit musicals Anything Goes, Kiss Me, Kate, Can-Can, Silk Stockings and High Society, he epitomised the wit, charm, elegance and sophistication of an era. Following a sold out performance a Dublin’s National Concert Hall, singer Stella Bass and pianist Niall Kinsella invite you to sit back and revel in an afternoon of song that’s guaranteed to be de-lightful, de-licious, de-lovely!
