TINY GIANTS: PETITE POWERHOUSES FROM GARLAND TO GAGA - Kelli Rabke, is the petite powerhouse of the concert stage bringing us a musical exploration of the women of song who are also women of a certain size. Some call them tiny, some call them short, some even use phrases like "vertically challenged" but what they really are is Concentrated Awesome. Being one of the ladies who stand on tiptoe to reach the top shelf, Ms. Rabke has done a deep dive into the works of Edith Piaf, Bette Midler, Stevie Nicks, and many more and turned up a collection of songs perfectly suited to her larger-than-life voice. The star of Joseph/Dreamcoat, Les Mis, and Children of Eden will present compositions from nine decades of popular music, each and every tune, one originating from one of the legendary artists who proved that great things come in small packages.
A regular on the concert and cabaret circuit, Kelli Rabke can often be found doing big, splashy musical revues and symphonic shows centered around the likes of Jerry Herman and Stephen Schwartz but the diva with the fiery hair is a hot-selling ticket in nightclubs and cabaret rooms, particularly making her artistic home at Feinstein's/54 Below. When asked about this new show, Kelli offered, "I had this brainstorm that so many of the biggest female voices have come from the smallest women. Being "vertically challenged" myself, it felt like a perfect fit to do a show about it! The show celebrates so many amazing female singers through 9 decades of music, and there's really something for everyone - from Judy Garland to Lady Gaga, from Dolly Parton to Stevie Nicks, and many more small-in-stature surprises!"
