NOVEMBER 16–18, 2017 SAN FRANCISCO (September 14, 2017) —Direct from starring as Elsa in the pre-Broadway engagement of Disney’s Frozen in Denver, Feinstein’s at the Nikko welcomes Broadway’s Caissie Levy for three performances only — Thursday, November 16 (8 p.m.), Friday, November 17 (8 p.m.) and Saturday, November 18 (8 p.m.). Making her San Francisco cabaret debut, Caissie will perform fresh takes on songs from throughout her celebrated Broadway career, as well as share stories from her life on (and off) the stage. Tickets for Caissie Levy range in price from $38.50–$75 and are available now by calling 866.663.1063 or visiting www.ticketfly.com. Caissie is currently originating the role of Elsa in the Denver world premiere and Broadway productions of Disney’s Frozen. She recreated the iconic role of Fantine in the 2014 revival of Les Misérables on Broadway, and is perhaps best known to New York and London audiences for originating the roles of Molly in Ghost, and Sheila in the Tony Award winning revival of Hair. Caissie’s other Broadway credits include Elphaba in the Broadway and Los Angeles productions of Wicked, Penny in the Broadway, 1st National Tour, and Toronto companies of Hairspray and Maureen in the national tour of Rent. Off-Broadway, she starred as Patti Davis and Julie Nixon in the world premiere of Michael John LaChiusa's First Daughter Suite at The Public Theater, and as Sara in the Off-Broadway production of Murder Ballad. She played opposite Aparna Nancherla in the short film Ms. Bula Banerjee. She recently made her headlining solo concert debut at Carnegie Hall with the New York Pops, singing the music of Kander & Ebb in honor of John Kander's 90th birthday. She backed up Sir Rod Stewart in Las Vegas, was a guest soloist with The United States Military Academy at West Point, and has performed solo shows to sold-out audiences at Feinstein’s/54 Below, Joe’s Pub, Galapagos Arts Space, Atlanta’s Alliance Theatre, and The Hippodrome in London. Recordings include the original cast albums of Ghost the Musical, Hair, and First Daughter Suite, and countless albums of new and seasoned composers alike, including her husband, composer/lyricist David Reiser. In 2013, Ms. Levy released her debut solo album, With You, featuring stripped down arrangements of songs from her Broadway shows. Located within Hotel Nikko (222 Mason Street, San Francisco), Feinstein’s at the Nikko presents a wide range of entertainers from stage and screen all within an intimate 140-seat cabaret setting. There is a $20 food and beverage minimum per person inside the showroom which guests can use towards cocktails as well as a variety of small plates crafted exclusively for Feinstein’s at the Nikko, through Restaurant Anzu. Cheese and dessert platters will also be available in the showroom. Guests of Feinstein’s at the Nikko can enjoy a variety of food and beverage options before performances. Kanpai Lounge, located in Hotel Nikko’s lobby, offers light cuisine, a full bar and specialty cocktails.

  • The Broadway Musical
    arts Article “I Can’t Be What You Expect of Me”: Power, Palatability, and Shame in Frozen: The Broadway Musical Hannah Robbins Department of Music, The University of Nottingham, NG7 2RD Nottingham, UK; [email protected] Received: 19 December 2019; Accepted: 13 March 2020; Published: 20 March 2020 Abstract: This article combines critical, cultural, and musical analysis to situate Frozen: The Broadway Musical as a distinct work within Disney’s wider franchise. In this article, I consider the evolution of Elsa’s character on stage and the role of additional songs in the Frozen score. In so doing, I demonstrate how the stage adaptation distances itself from the feminist potential in the original animation. Using the lenses of palatability and gendered shame, I argue that Frozen: The Broadway Musical forces patriarchal modes of behaviour onto its heroines. Keywords: Frozen; Disney; Broadway; feminism; gender; power; shame 1. Introduction In March 2014, Disney’s animated hit Frozen sold over three million copies in the US on the first day of its DVD and Blu-ray release, having previously broken records as the fastest-selling digital release of all time (Graser 2014). In the film, Elsa and Anna, the orphaned princesses of Arendelle, fight to overcome childhood tragedy, find emotional freedom, (in Elsa’s case) control of world altering powers, and bring about peace and happiness for themselves and their kingdom. Frozen’s innovative princess-coming-of-age story and its hugely popular soundtrack of songs has captured audiences around the world, and the recent success of its sequel, Frozen 2, has shown the longevity of this popularity.

    Healthy Belting for the Classically Trained Singer by Samantha Serrano Bassig Treatise Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2020 The Treatise Committee for Samantha Serrano Bassig certifies that this is the approved version of the following treatise: Healthy Belting for the Classically Trained Singer Committee: Darlene Wiley, Supervisor Guido Olivieri, Co-Supervisor David Small Rick Rowley Hannah Lewis John Nix Healthy Belting for the Classically Trained Singer by Samantha Serrano Bassig, DMA The University of Texas at Austin, 2020 SUPERVISOR: Darlene Wiley, CO-SUPERVISOR: Guido Olivieri This treatise explores the history of belting, the differences in types of belting, belting registers, exploring a methodology of healthy, and stylistically correct belt. The ability to sing musical theatre style has become high in demand from both Broadway and Opera companies. About more than half of Young Artist Programs, pay to sings, and apprenticeships put on at least one musical theater show a season. Those on the audition panel now ask in the audition requirements for at least one musical theatre piece to perform for them. Having the knowledge of how to properly belt will help the performer have more opportunities than other singers who only know how to sing bel canto style. This treatise will include a new methodology that will address a belting technique through the lens of a classically trained singer and how to transfer elements from bel canto technique into a belting technique.
