Ann Hampton Callaway announces new dates in London this September

Ann Hampton Callaway has announced new dates in London this September.

The Tony nominee pop, jazz singer, songwriter and actress will first bring Let’s Fall in Love to The Pheasantry Pizza Express on 21 and 22 September.

The night begins with beloved classics from the 20s to the 40s by Irving Berlin, Porter, Arlen, Gershwin and Kern. Then, in the second half, the celebration builds with gorgeous contemporary love songs by the Bergmans and beyond and her own compositions which have been recorded by Barbra Streisand and many others.

Be there when this multi-award-winning artist gives us the perfect date night and a warm, musical hug for these complex times.

Later in the month, Callaway will rebut new show Fever!: The Peggy Lee Century on 25 and 26 September at Pizza Express Jazz Soho.

On the heels of Ann’s Streisand Songbook symphonic triumph, this show celebrates the 100th birthday of the trailblazing woman who gave the world Fever, through six decades of iconic songs from sultry to sizzling.

Fall under the spell of love songs from Peggy’s swinging Benny Goodman days through decades of hits from film and recordings that earned this iconic singer-songwriter her powerhouse nickname, The female Frank Sinatra. Peggy Lee’s granddaughter Holly Foster Wells will also be Ann’s special guest for a brief Q and A after the show.

Ann Hampton Callaway said: “I am thrilled to announce that I will be bringing my brand new show ‘Fever!: The Peggy Lee Century’ to London, along with my show ‘Let’s Fall in Love’. I can’t wait to spend two wonderful nights exploring the many facets of love and another two offering a tribute to Peggy Lee’s artistry.”
