Considered the greatest songwriter in the American songbook, Cole Porter wrote both the music and lyrics for over one thousand songs and his life was just as remarkable!
In this new show, award-winning writer and performer Lisa Faith Phillips weaves the stories of Cole Porter’s life against the backdrop of his great love songs, with the marvelous singer Deanna Kirk and the fabulous John Di Martino on piano.
From his wealthy childhood in Peru, Indiana through Yale and Harvard Law School, and his marriage to great beauty Linda Thomas, Cole lived in Paris for 20 years, and traveled the world, eventually moving to New York and Hollywood. In 1928 at 37 Cole’s Broadway career took off with the success of Paris, followed by many popular shows and movie scores from Anything Goes to Kiss Me Kate.
