Cabaret at the History Center: Mel McGuire Sings Cole Porter

The music selections range all throughout his career, from the biggest shows to obscure pieces rarely performed. One might make you shed a tear and the next will have you rolling with laughter. Always captivating, cabaret singer-storyteller Mel McGuire will be accompanied by maestro Rodney Loren on piano bringing fresh arrangements of jazz standards like "DeLovely", "You're the Top", and "Night and Day".
