A Song For You: The Music Of Karen Carpenter
March 21st
Doors at 1:30pm
Show at 2pm
Inspired by the enchanting melodies and powerful storytelling of Karen Carpenter, Laurie shares personal stories and memories in a delightful evening woven through Carpenter hits such as “Close to You,” “Rainy Days and Mondays,” “Superstar,” “Ticket to Ride,” and many more.
When Roldan made her New York debut with the East Coast premiere of “A Song for You” at The Green Room 42 earlier this year, and then returning for an encore performance at 54 Below NYC , The Front Row Center hailed the evening as “a must-see NYC cabaret experience” and Opening Night Online called it “a genuinely personal meditation on resilience, faith, and the healing power of song.” According to All About Solo, “Echoes of Karen Carpenter’s voice can be heard in Laurie’s voice throughout the show. Roldan is clearly in her element, performing the Karen Carpenter catalogue with verve, optimism and utter delight.” “Roldan has a lovely lower register…….. with strong resemblance to the recordings fans of THE CARPENTERS know by heart . A Joyful night of Cabaret!” Stephen Mosher , Broadway World
