Sandy Bainum is Ever Blondeward
​August 5 & 6 at 8PM


The beautiful, bubbly, golden-haired Ms. Sandy Bainum will pay musical homage to a bevy of fellow blondes; some broads, some bombshells and a delicious diva or two.  Her brand new show, entitled Ever Blondeward, is a celebration of fair-haired singers of all genres and eras. Sandy will perform a wide range of terrific songs, originally sung by the likes of movie and theater legends Betty Hutton, Judy Holliday, Rosemary Clooney, Doris Day, June Allyson, Barbara Cook and the blonde that all gentlemen preferred, Miss Marilyn Monroe. Ever Blondeward is a joyful evening, one that will remind us all of our very favorite blonde women of song, including, of course, Ms. Sandy Bainum, who represents all the blondes who came (and sang) before her. Sandy will be joined onstage by her award-winning musical director Lanny Meyers.
 
Ever Blondeward was directed by the beautiful (brunette) cabaret icon, Ms. Andrea Marcovicci.
