BUY TICKETS Discover the songs and loves of Rodgers & Hart in this “wildly entertaining” show by Lisa Faith Phillips with singer Deanna Kirk and John Di Martino on piano. The award-winning writer and performer Lisa Faith Phillips is back with the new Bewitched: The Songs and Loves of Rodgers & Hart, weaving funny and touching tales of their lives and songs with divine singer Deanna Kirk and brilliant John Di Martino on piano. Rodgers was just 16 when he met and began to write songs with the witty lyricist Lorenz Hart. They had their first hit with Manhattan in 1925 and went on to write 28 musicals and over 500 songs, including Bewitched, The Lady is a Tramp and My Funny Valentine. The handsome composer Dick Rodgers loved the ladies. However, Larry Hart, barely five feet tall with an unusually large head, charmed with wit and energy but struggled to find love as he hid his then illegal homosexuality. Heavy drinking led to the deterioration of his collaboration with Rodgers and Larry’s early death at just 48. Join us for an evening of fascinating stories, songs and laughter! We’ll end with a moving sing-along of Blue Moon. Lisa Faith Phillips has performed her original shows in NYC, London, Dublin, Barcelona and at the DC Capital and Edinburgh Fringe Festivals. She is currently studying music theory at Juilliard and working on her first novel Love in the Russian Tea Room.
