Kathy Beaver brings her "I'm Flying" cabaret show to <BR>
the Bridge Theater at the Whitehall Armory Saturday, August
11, she
<BR>
will have the keyboard accompaniment of Steve Saari (cq) who has worked
<BR>
with such varied stage personalities as Tommy Tune, Vince Gill, Cindy
<BR>
Crawford and the Radio City
Rockettes.<BR>
Saari was musical director and conductor for the Martin Short show,
<BR>
"Fame Becomes Me" on Broadway and toured in the same capacity with
<BR>
Tommy Tune in "Doctor
Doolittle."<BR>
When Kathy Beaver decided to continue her musical career as a
<BR>
cabaret singer following an accident on stage in "Gypsy" that halted
<BR>
her career as a concert and orchestral violinist in New York,
she <BR>
worked with Tony Parise while appearing at the Fort Salem Theater to put
<BR>
together the cabaret "I'm Flying" that she is bringing to Whitehall,
<BR>
It first played at the Fort Salem Theater and later in New
York.<BR>
As she has explained in discussing her stage accident: "When you're
<BR>
dealt lemons, you make
lemonade."<BR>
Following the accident, Beaver has supplemented her cabaret
<BR>
performances with parttime work as a flight attendant on Jet Blue that
<BR>
takes her coast to coast and into the Caribbean several times a
month.<BR> Saari,,
who is the accompaniest for "I'm Flying" at the Bridge <BR></FONT></SPAN><SPAN

Theater in Whitehall, is no stranger to the travel industry himself
<BR>
since he serves as vocal director for shows presented on the Royal
<BR>
Caribbean cruise ships when not touring with orchestras across America,
<BR>
Asia and Europe. In November each year he serves as vocal director for
<BR>
the Macy's Thanksgiving Day
parade.<BR>
The Julliard School graduate who is a faculty member at
the <BR> Diller-Quiale
School of Music, is constantly on the go. Following his
<BR>
appearance in Whitehall, he takes off for Rhode Island for an
<BR>
appearance the next day.</FONT></SPAN><SPAN

Beaver spent a good part of her life with the Fort Salem Theater
<BR>
that her father, the late Quentin Beaver, established in the early
<BR>
1970s. He died last year. His daughter served as producer and star
<BR>
performer for five years at the Washington County theater during
her <BR>
father's long illness. Jay Kerr bought the theater six years ago, and has
since
<BR>
created new musicals and cabaret performances with regional
and <BR> Broadway
talent while revamping the venue from its original church
