Great musical theater songs the Baroness has chosen for this charity theatrical event are dramatically intense, touching, witty, ironic, and just plain charming. Baroness Elisa, who has performed on world stages throughout Europe and Australia, noted, “It is an honor and privilege to perform for this noble and important cause”. The intimate three hundred seat Crest Theatre in Delray Beach provides a perfect
theater venue where the Baroness Elisa’s charisma and audience connection can thrive. The Crest Theatre is located at the historic Old School Square, 51 North
Swinton Ave., in downtown Delray Beach. Theater reviewers raved about the Baroness’ show: “The slender red-headed ingénue melts the hearts of audiences. She is in every sense of the word a beautiful woman, earthy, gentle, and comfortable with herself, and in touch with her audience. The Baroness is joined her talented musical director, husband, and Baron, Peter Gerolymatos on the piano.”
