Description
Longtime friends and collaborators, Alysha Umphress and Jeff Blumenkrantz are two Broadway babies bringing their sold out Joe’s Pub show to San Francisco (Alysha’s hometown!) to deliver an evening of jazzy story driven goodness. You’ll hear highlights from their album I’ve Been Played: Alysha Umphress Swings Jeff Blumenkrantz as well as some fresh new arrangements of some Broadway classics with a jazzy twist. Plus you’ll hear a smattering of Jeff’s original music (his work has been Tony nominated so we don’t have to tell you, it’s very good) This show will feel like a warm hug from someone you’re very fond of.

Alysha Umphress returns to the Nikko with a unique new show called 15 Stories. Conceived by Jack Viertel and music directed by Bálint Varga, Umphress (On the Town, American Idiot, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, many television and symphony appearances including with the London Symphony and at La Scala) will take the audience on 15 different rides, performing songs that tell a narrative story from beginning to end – theater songs, country songs, pop songs, gospel and more.
Leaving behind – for the moment – the “I love you,” “I wish I was in love,” “Why don’t you love me” genres, each number is a unique journey for a unique character in a unique situation. The songs range from Bock and Harnick and Kurt Weill to Bobby Gentry, John Prine, Randy Newman, Leiber and Stoller, and George Gershwin. This special engagement is an opportunity to see Alysha take on 15 different personae in one evening, featuring one of the most glorious voices there is to be heard anywhere
Alysha Umphress’ Broadway credits include On the Town (Hildy), American Idiot, On A Clear Day You Can See Forever, Priscilla Queen Of the Desert, and Bring It On. Off Broadway: Scotland, PA, Smokey Joe’s Cafe (Lortel nomination for Best Supporting Actress and Chita Rivera Award winner for Best Ensemble). Alysha performed the role of Ruth Sherwood in Wonderful Town with the London Symphony Orchestra, which was recorded on the LSO label. Alysha originated the role of Cee Cee Bloom in the world premiere of Beaches at the Signature Theatre (Helen Hayes nomination for Best Leading Actress in a Musical). Television credits include “Chicago Med,” “Blue Bloods,” “Girls5eva,” “Law and Order: SVU,” “Nurse Jackie,” “Royal Pains,” and “The Climb.” Alysha can now be seen as Murphy in Netflix’s “Bonding.” Alysha was awarded the gold medal this year at the American Traditions Vocal Competition in Savannah.
