Jane Monheit

“I want to get away from the drama, and celebrate what we all loved about Judy...the immense joy she brought through song, and her innate understanding of jazz. She did so much more than break hearts, she put them together again, and that’s what we’re going to be about with this show.” –Jane Monheit
