"This Is Cabaret" with Ann Hampton Callaway and Special Guest Marilyn Maye

Recasting cabaret as an emotionally engaging experience rather than a place, host Ann Hampton Callaway celebrates intimate performances and heartfelt songs from a variety of genres: jazz, Broadway, folk, singer-songwriter, the blues, and more!

"In a world of increased alienation, an artistic experience of intimacy can be quite healing to the heart. A room full of strangers can feel like a family." Ann Hampton Callaway

Guests give intimate performances and share personal insights, live from the stage of the legendary Birdland in New York City. Each week, Ann Hampton Callaway the "Queen of American Cabaret", holds court and engages some of the most interesting singers and songwriters from America and around the world.

“For sheer vocal beauty, no contemporary singer matches Ms.
Callaway.”* –Stephen Holden, The New York Times*

Marilyn Maye is a highly praised singer, actress, director, arranger,
educator, a Grammy nominated recording artist and a musical treasure. Her entire life has been committed to the art of song and performance.

“Marilyn Maye's show is not to be missed. It’s a master class in
singing conducted by a polished pro who majored in unforgettable.”* - Rex Reed, New York Observer*
