Big Weekend at Bay
Sag Harbor’s Bay Street Theater will be busy this weekend. Tomorrow at 8 p.m., Judy Carmichael and her quartet will perform music from “I Love Being Here With You,” the first all-vocal CD by the virtuoso stride pianist. Ms. Carmichael will sing standards from the Great American Songbook. Tickets are $45 for side seating, $55 for center, while $75 includes admission to an after-party with the artist.
Judy Gold, a two-time Emmy Award-winning comedian and actress, will take the stage Saturday at 8 p.m. with her monologue “25 Questions for a Jewish Mother.” Written in 2007 and performed at St. Luke’s Theater/Arts Nova in New York City, the show won the GLAAD award for Outstanding New York Theater. Ms. Gold gathered material for it as she traveled across the country interviewing Jewish mothers on the subject of overprotectiveness.
Ticket prices range from $59 for side seating to $89 for front rows in the center sections.
On Sunday evening at 8, Betty Buckley will present her new show, “The Lyricist,” an evening of songs celebrating Oscar Hammerstein as well as such contemporary artists as Stephen Sondheim and Mary Chapin Carpenter.
The evening will feature new arrangements of some of Ms. Buckley’s favorite songs as well as two numbers from her new CD, “Ghostlight.” She will be accompanied on piano by John McDaniel. Tickets are $59 on the side, $79 in the center, and $99 for an after-party with Ms. Buckley.
