Davi is scheduled to play the famed jazz venue May 19 at 7 PM. She will be accompanied by musical director Adam Waite.

Cabaretgoers can expect to hear tunes from the new musical Dancing in the Dark as well as a mix of jazz, musical theatre and contemporary music.

Mara Davi originated the role of Maggie in the Broadway revival of A Chorus Line and later starred as Janet van de Graaff in the Broadway production of The Drowsy Chaperone.
