Tony Award Nominee Mary Bridget Davies Coming To Danbury on May 6

 
                 Star of Broadway’s “A Night With Janis Joplin” to perform at Danburys Palace Theatre on Saturday May 6, 2017
 
Tony Award nominee Mary Bridget Davies will make her Palace Danbury debut on Saturday, May 6, 2017.
 
Davies starred in the Broadway musical A Night With Janis Joplin, delivering a performance so raw, real, and in-the-moment that it brought audiences to their feet with nightly standing ovations. It also earned her a Theater World Award win and nominations for a Tony Award, The Drama League’s Distinguished Performance Award and Helen Hayes Award.
 
Although the reviews for the show were mixed, the critics went wild for Davies! Entertainment Weekly cited her “phenomenal voice,” and the Los Angeles Times praised “the astonishing Mary Bridget Davies…it’s a triumph for all concerned.” The New York Times said she “captured the Joplin sound perfectly” and Pegasus News raved “Mary Bridget Davies has the heart of the most intense rocker, the soul of a gospel singer, and the passion of a jazz singer.”
 
Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, this powerhouse rock and blues singer’s love of music was instilled by her parents, who raised her on a healthy diet of the Allman Brothers Band, Stevie Wonder, James Brown, Joe Cocker and, naturally, Janis Joplin.
 
These days, the multi-talented singer, guitarist, photographer and dog-lover is excited about the limitless possibilities that await. "I've never had a specific 'game plan' or laid out a career path for myself… after being on Broadway and getting some attention, I'm really stoked about what's next. Bring it on!”
 
Mary Bridget Davies and her band will perform Janis' hits along with some serious R&B classics and original tunes at The Place Danbury on Saturday, May 6 starting at 8:00 PM. Tickets are available by phone at 203 794-9944 from 1-5pm daily, online at https://tickets.thepalacedanbury.com or at the box office the night of the show. Ticket prices range from $29 to $39.
