Stritch’s career spanned almost 70 years and her brassy powerful voice and larger-than-life persona were a constant part of theater, television, and films for much of the last part of the 20th century and even into the 21st, when she had a celebrated cabaret show at the Carlyle Hotel while she was in her 80’s. Local star Carol Duermit embodies Stritch’s spirit and renowned director Francis Cullinan has created a wonderful show interspersing some of the songs she made famous with great stories about her fascinating life. Artistic Director Daniel Weiser will collaborate on the piano. A portion of the proceeds from the show will go to the Cavalry Church Food Pantry which served over 17,000 people in 2018 and is continuing to expand.
