ERICH BERGEN — LIVE!

CATALINA BAR & GRILL IN HOLLYWOOD
TWO SHOWS ONLY
THURSDAY, MAY 21 & FRIDAY, MAY 22
AT 8:30PM

Chris Isaacson Presents has announced Erich Bergen—Live! for two shows only at the Catalina Bar & Grill in Hollywood on Thursday, May 21 and Friday, May 22 at 8:30pm. Just prior to these Los Angeles shows, Bergen will be appearing on Monday, May 18 for one show only at Martinis Above Fourth in San Diego.

Best known for his performance as Bob Gaudio in the Clint Eastwood film of Jersey Boys (reprising the role he played on stage for over three years) and his co-starring role on the CBS nighttime drama Madam Secretary (recently renewed for its second season after consistently being in the Top 10 since its debut in September 2014), Erich Bergen will bring his dry wit and smooth vocals to the Catalina stage with musical director Michael Orland (American Idol) and a 10 piece band. The show will feature songs from Bergen’s stage and screen career and songs from his two EP releases — his self-titled debut and the recent Never Give Up.

Of Bergen’s past concert performances, the Los Angeles Times said, “… with his lanky good looks and vibrant intensity, his charisma feeds off the spotlight …” and BroadwayWorld.com said, “Taking the stage with the gusto akin to a tornado or blazing brush fire, this young dynamo captivated the packed house from the moment he opened his mouth.” Bergen last played two sold-out performances at the legendary Birdland in New York City which has led many to describe him as ‘the next big thing.’

Chris Isaacson Presents was nominated for four BroadwayWorld.com Awards for its presentation of concerts in 2014 starring Laura Benanti, Danny Gurwin, Jeremy Jordan, and Jennifer Holliday. Critically acclaimed shows thus far in 2015 have included Broadway’s Mandy Gonzalez and film icon Molly Ringwald. For more information about upcoming CIP events visit www.ChrisIsaacsonPresents.com.

Doors open at 7pm for cocktail and dinner service. Single entrée or drink minimums apply. Admission is $25—$40 with VIP seating available for $50. Purchases made before May 15 receive $5 off, and online purchases will receive priority seating.
