Synopsis: | Pearl Bailey . . . By Request is set in a nightclub and is based upon a 1950's album of Pearl Bailey's most requested songs from her Columbia Records era. As a cabaret performance, the show is an unqualified success. Roz White is a terrific performer. Area theatre fans who have seen her in shows like Two Queens One Castle and Three Sistahs know that the lady can sing. Earlier in her career she performed as Effie in a national tour of Dreamgirls, a role that help you appreciate the fact that she has seriously powerful pipes. The show features fifteen songs that were Pearl Bailey classics. Most of the songs were those that let Pearl Bailey demonstrate her memorable personality, including the song Personality, as well as other highlights like A Woman's Prerogative and Takes Two to Tango. The show is nicely balanced with some more powerful ballads as well, such as Here You Come With Love and her signature hit Tired. | |||||
