Sam's Enchanted Evening(2010)OverviewPerformances
Sam's Enchanted Evening is a Residential version of a one man show in cabaret format. It stars Randy Rose as Sam, who shares stories and songs from his life that have the most meaning to him.
The first public performance was a shorter experimental production entitled So Long Sam, and included a small string orchestra at the Berkeley Art Museum. A year later the first workshop performance took place, with the players now consisting of just Sam and a piano player. In spring of 2012 another set of workshop performances was performed in New York, this time adding another character - a waitress in a café where the action takes place.
All of the song selections are popular hits, mostly from the mid-20th century, sung in Randy's inimitable style.
