An exploration of two musical icons - Maria Callas and Marlene Dietrich - Brigitte Heuser shares the stories and songs of two icons of the 20th Century. In this genre-busting cabaret, Mezzo-Soprano Heuser covers an extreme range from opera to movie hits and cabaret, while exploring the fascinating off-stage lives of these two remarkable divas whose artistry continues to inspire today.
Brigitte is joined on stage by outstanding pianist Joshua Haines.
“Throughout the evening, Heuser, with a simple narrative, compared and contrasted the histories and personalities of Marlene Dietrich with the operatic Diva Maria Callas.” ~ Patricia Gill ~
