Betty Buckley “Broadway By Request”

Betty Buckley – called “The Voice of Broadway!” by New York Magazine – won her first Tony as Broadway’s Grizabella, the Glamour Cat, in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Cats.” 

The rest is history!

The chanteuse returned to the stage this month  with her new, deeply autobiographical show.

Variety  says, "Betty Buckley returns to Feinstein's with her most enjoyable and entertaining act in years. "Broadway by Request" mixes a changing assortment of songs from singer's  career with unfailingly amusing stories and anecdotes, giving us the best of Betty Buckley indeed. … Along with her singing, Buckley demonstrates a friendly, easygoing and candid storytelling style. What makes the format work so well is that it forces Buckley to sing in unvarnished fashion. … The winning element to the program, though, is that Buckley spends half the time talking directly, openly, and humorously to the patrons…."

FEINSTEIN’S AT LOEWS REGENCY, the nightclub proclaimed “Best of New York” by New York Magazine, and “an invaluable New York institution” by The New York Post, continues its 10th Anniversary season with the return engagement of Tony Award winning singer and actress BETTY BUCKLEY.

In an exclusive  run of the new show “Broadway By Request” Ms. Buckley will perform selections picked by the audience from her illustrious Broadway career in landmark musicals such as Cats, Sunset Boulevard, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, Song And Dance and more.

This unique evening of music, which will be different every night, will offer rare video footage and occasional special guests. “Broadway By Request” – featuring Seth Rudetsky and directed by Richard Jay-Alexander – final dates  through March 7 at the Regency Hotel (540 Park Avenue at 61st Street).
