Bay Street Theater welcomes Jill Eikenberry back to the stage on Monday, July 1, with “Here I Go Again!” The evening of songs is part of the Music Mondays concert series at Bay Street and Ms. Eikenberry will perform along with husband Michael Tucker and special guest, award-winning actor, David Rasche.
Ms. Eikenberry was last seen at Bay Street in the 2011 production of “Enter Laughing, the musical.” This time, she will present songs from her life and her career. The theme of the show is “taking a chance on love” and it will include works by Kurt Weill, Randy Newman, Peggy Lee, Janis Ian, and Joni Mitchell, as well as some exciting new composers. She’ll be joined by her musical director James Horan at the piano, Mike Kuennen on bass, Zach Eldridge on drums, and Lee Weisman on guitar.
Ms. Eikenberry is perhaps best known for her portrayal of Ann Kelsey on NBC’s long-running hit series “LA Law,” which earned her four Emmy nominations, two Golden Globe nominations and a Golden Globe Award. She starred on Broadway in “Moonchildren,” “All Over Town,”
“Summer Brave,” “Watch on the Rhine” and “Onward Victoria.”
Mr. Tucker appeared in the York Theater’s production of “Enter Laughing, the musical” as well as the Bay Street production. Best known for his portrayal of Stuart Markowitz in “LA Law,” he has plied his trade for 40 years—on stage, TV and in film. He has published three memoirs and a novel.
Mr. Rasche began his career at Chicago’s famed Second City. He has appeared on Broadway and in episodic television shows from “Miami Vice” to “Monk,” and starred in the cult favorite “Sledge Hammer!” He will appear in Michael Tucker’s “Fern Hill” which will be produced at 59E59 in the fall.
Tickets are on sale now at baystreet.org and 631-725-9500. Bay Street Theater is located on Long Wharf in Sag Harbor.
