Strangers in the Nacht

Bradley Greenwald and company present this jazzy lieder cabaret celebrating the incomparable artistry of Frank Sinatra and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, the two most recorded singers of the 20th century. Their explosive careers ran in parallel on opposite sides of the Atlantic … in completely different genres. Our casts’ superb interpretations of Sinatra's greatest hits and Dieskau's romantic German art song - paired with engaging stories and historical images - make for a unique an unforgettable evening of wit, cool sophistication and poetic lyricism. Delightfully Wunderbar!
