The Mabel Mercer Foundation Presents SIDNEY MYER Live at the Laurie Beechman Theatre
Harbinger Records is pleased to announce our premiere DVD release. For this prestigious debut, we’ve chosen a live recording of the estimable Sidney Myer at the Laura Beechman Theatre in New York. Known for his witty musical comedy, Sidney delivers numbers that are understated and even heartbreaking. Disarming, funny, preposterous, touching, and utterly unique, Myer is one of the country’s leading cabaret performers. He’s performed around the world, making New York his base.
Myer has won numerous awards for his incomparable choice of material, delivery and wit. For the past 25 years, despite constant urging from admirers, Sidney limited his brilliance to cameos at clubs, benefits and conventions. But for his debut DVD Sidney sold-out six one-man shows…emphasizing his wide range of material and thrilling his audiences.
We are proud to say the result is an utterly marvelous record of a uniquely versatile performer that will thrill aficionados of musical comedy, cabaret, popular song and standup comedy. There’s something for everyone in this record of a master showman at the top of his game.
