                                     WHITEHALL---When Kathy Beaver brings her "I'm Flying" cabaret show to 
                                     the Bridge Theater at the Whitehall Armory Saturday, August 11, she 
                                     will have the keyboard accompaniment of Steve Saari (cq) who has worked 
                                     with such varied  stage personalities as Tommy Tune, Vince Gill, Cindy 
                                     Crawford and the Radio City Rockettes.
                                        Saari was musical director and conductor for the Martin Short show, 
                                   "Fame Becomes Me" on Broadway and toured in the same capacity with 
                                     Tommy Tune in "Doctor Doolittle."
                                        When Kathy Beaver decided to continue her musical career as a 
                                     cabaret singer following an accident on stage in "Gypsy" that halted 
                                      her career as a concert and orchestral violinist in New York, she 
                                      teamed up with Saari for her work in Manhattan cabaret apearances.
                                         It was with Saari that she put together the cabaret "I'm Flying"  
                                     she is bringing to Whitehall,   As she has explained in discussing her 
                                     stage accident: "When you're dealt lemons, you make lemonade."
                                     Following the accident, Beaver has supplemented her cabaret 
                                     performances with parttime work as a flight attendent on Jet Blue that 
                                     takes her coast to coast and into the Caribbean several times a month.
                                        Saari is no stranger to the travel industry himself since he serves 
                                     as vocal director for shows presented on the Royal Caribbean cruise 
                                     ships when not touring with orchestras across America, Asia and Europe. 
                                        In November each year he serves as vocal director for the Macy's 
                                    Thanksgiving Day parade.
                                       The Julliard School graduate who is a faculty member at the 
                                    Diller-Quiale School of Music, is constantly on the go. Following his 
                                    appearance in Whitehall, he takes off for Rhode Island for an 
                                    appearance the next day.
                                       Beaver who spent a good part of her life with the Fort Salem
