The 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Performing Arts Center is proud to present "An Evening with Betty Buckley" at 8 p.m. on Saturday, December 3 as part of the New York Stage & Beyond series. A warm, brilliant start to the Las Vegas holiday season, Texas native and Broadway star Buckley - who Variety said "owns the best pipes in musical theatre" - sings favorite show tunes and holiday classics.
Buckley won a Tony Award for her performance as Grizabella, the Glamour Cat, in Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Cats." She received her second Tony Award nomination for Best Actress in a musical for her performance as Hesione in "Triumph of Love" and an Olivier Award nomination for her interpretation of Norma Desmond in the London production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Sunset Boulevard," which she repeated to more rave reviews on Broadway.
