About this event
The acclaimed Irish duo of jazz singer and actress Honor Heffernan and composer/ keyboard player Trevor Knight proudly present their new Cabaret/Speakeasy-style show “The Whistling Girl”, featuring musical settings of the poetry of the great American wit, civil rights activist and author Dorothy Parker.
Expect to encounter an evening with a darkly theatrical atmosphere in which Parker’s droll and sometimes heart-rending lyrics are transported into the 21st Century through newly composed songs and music. Supported by a band of top Irish musicians Ed Deane (guitar), Garvan Gallagher (bass) and Tom Jamieson (drums)
