The rest of 2019 finds her only having two stops. The first stop for <em><a href="https://scfta.org/events/2019/betty-buckley" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Betty Buckley in Concert</a> </em>begins on Thursday for three nights at the Samueli Theatre at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa.</p> <p>These shows are billed as cabaret performances. Having seen Buckley many times in this setting, concertgoers are indeed in for a treat. She knows her way around just about any song you could name (and certainly plenty you can’t.)</p> <p><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/Euli3PBW0YQ" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>My fondest memory is seeing her at Pepperdine several years ago when she called for a volunteer to come up on stage. No one was particularly willing, so I raised my hand and the next thing I knew she was singing “You’ve Got Possibilities” from <em>It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, It’s Superman!</em> to me. I had the privilege of not just hearing her through the PA system, but to hear how amazing she sounded without amplification. I was that close. And I was blown away. That’s an evening I’ll never forget.</p> <p>Given that she’s known for her role as Grizabella in <em>Cats</em>, it is probably safe to assume you will hear “Memory” from that show. Don’t be surprised if a song like “Before the Parade Passes By” from <em>Hello, Dolly!</em> finds its way into the setlist either.</p> <p>Betty Buckley is an actor who sings and a singer who acts. That gives her tremendous abilities that no fan of Broadway musicals and great singing should miss.</p> <p>November 2nd Buckley will be performing at The Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills.</p> <p>For tickets for this week’s shows go <a href="https://scfta.org/events/2019/betty-buckley" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.</p> <p>For tickets at The Saban go here.</p> <p>Photo of Betty Buckley by John Boal/Courtesy of bettybuckley.com</p> <p>The post <a href="https://culturalattache.co/2019/10/14/betty-buckley-in-concert/">Betty Buckley in Concert</a> appeared first on <a href="https://culturalattache.co">Cultural Attaché</a>.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://culturalattache.co/2019/10/14/betty-buckley-in-concert/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
