Vegas In The Valley at the 142 Throckmorton Theatre
Elena Griffing's Birthday Celebration - 7:00 p.m.
142 Throckmorton AvenueMill Valley CA
415.383.9600
Price: $20 Gen/30 Rsvd; $23 Door
What happened in Vegas comes to Mill Valley! Having transformed the 142 Throckmorton Theatre into the great Copa Room at the legendary Sands Hotel, I'm now celebrating the carefree spirit and fun filled nightlife that epitomized the casino lounges of the swinging 60s.
Backed by my jazz and swing-infused quartet, I'll be creating an intimate after-hours atmosphere, weaving the great American standards with stories about the men and women who composed and performed these wonderful songs.
And just like the Vegas lounge scene made famous by legends such as Louis Prima and Keely Smith, the audience should expect the unexpected. You never know what might happen or who will show up for a guest appearance.
Vegas in the Valley is a night of great music, dancing, drinking and surprises.
Performing with me are Lee Bloom on piano, Jeff Neighbor on bass, Kent Bryson on drums and Jeff Sanford on reeds.
