Melissa Errico Brings Film Noir Back With A Passion

By Suzanna Bowling

Melissa Errico brings her love for film noir and her new show A Noir Romance, to Birdland just in time for Valentine’s Day. We all found ways to cope during the COVID-19 lockdown, Melissa created an album called Out Of The Dark-The Film Noir Project. Singing numbers from her album, she leads us down the rabbit hole to a darker side where crime, mystery, passion, romance, the exotic and the cruel inhabit. She does this while looking stunningly in the moment.

One of the last hearty Manhattan toasts raised was in salute to Melissa Errico. She’d wowed ’em not that very long ago in the Encores! series One Touch of Venus revival. A smart, talented and unquestionably luxurious performer, she has continued to deserve gallant toasts ever since, while concentrating on cabaret turns. Why musicals haven’t been written for her remains a mystery.
