Avery Sommers Rules The Laurie Beechman Theatre with FOR SENTIMENTAL REASONS
“It is appropriate that Avery Sommers wears a bejeweled gold headpiece around her upswept hair for her performance of “For Sentimental Reasons” because it looks rather like a crown, and Avery Sommers is showbusiness royalty. It is true that Ms. Sommers is not the most famous woman to tread the boards, but fame is not what makes royalty – style and survival do, tenacity and talent do, originality and individuality do, and these are the royal titles bestowed upon Avery Sommers by some otherworldly being or by Mother Nature herself. In simplest parlance: Avery Sommers is all the damn things.” ~ Stephen Mosher, Broadway World
That’s why we love Avery Sommers. And thank you for this awesome review, Stephen Mosher! It was such an honor to play for Avery at the NYC Cabaret Convention this year at Lincoln Center and then MD her show, For Sentimental Reasons, at the Laurie Beechman Theatre on November 2, 2019. You won’t want to miss Avery when she brings her show by back to NYC by popular demand in 2020. Stay tuned!!
