Unsung Carolyn Leigh showcased songs by the Tony and Grammy-nominated lyricist of Peter Pan and Little Me. The cast included Erin Davie (Side Show, A Little Night Music, Grey Gardens), Max von Essen (Evita), Jeremy Kushnier (Jersey Boys, Next to Normal), Adam Kantor (The Last Five Years) and Teal Wicks (Wicked, Jekyll & Hyde), the concert features Donna Bullock (Ragtime), Rachel de Benedet (Catch Me if You Can), Drew Gehling (On a Clear Day), Autumn Hurlbert (Legally Blonde) and Alli Mauzey (Wicked, Cry-Baby).

Here's how the evening was billed: "Celebrating her enduring legacy of smart, sophisticated and often sexy songwriting, Unsung Carolyn Leigh highlights the legendary lyricist's little-known works, including several jazz-infused items from her acclaimed 1969 Gatsby score, a cut song from How Now Dow Jones, and two numbers written with Marvin Hamlisch for the original, unproduced version of Smile. Eight dynamic performers, a sizzling trio of musicians and over twenty melodic gems color the intimate evening, which also features rare audio clips from two of Ms. Leigh's original demo recordings."

Cast: Donna Bullock, Erin Davie, Rachel de Benedet, Drew Gehling, Autumn Hurlbert, Adam Kantor, Jeremy Kushnier, Alli Mauzey, Max von Essen, Teal Wicks. 

Musical direction and arrangements, pianist: Fran Minarik.
