For nnfo about Mark's upcoming shows in his own words:
"I'm thrilled to announce that I have TWO new shows coming up at
The Laurie Beechman Theatre.
But I'm only doing ONE PERFORMANCE of each show -
so if you snooze, you lose!!
I'm calling this little mini-series LADIES I LOVE, because in each show I'll be
co-starring with two of my favorite female singers.
The first onein which I'll be sharing the stage with Marta Sanders
and Sandra Reaves-Philips is on Monday, November 25 at 7 PM.
The second one is with Heather MacRae and Nancy McCall and will be on
Wednesday, December 4 at 7PM.
BOTH shows will feature new arrangements of new material played by me
and three other FABULOUS musicians.
These are going to be two very, very special evenings --
I hope you don't miss them!" Mark Nadler
