Press Release Summary: This Weekend : Marianne Challis Sings atThe Royal Room
Cabaret at The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach

Press Release Body: Marianne Challis will perform Oct. 24-25 & Oct. 31-Nov. 1st at
the Royal Room of The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach. Marianne Challis is an
audience-wowing combination of sophisticated chanteuse and rib-ticking comedian. The
refreshing and irreverent cabaret star, who is the vocal coach for numerous Broadway
stars, performs an eclectic mix of new and classic tunes from the Great American
Songbook.
Reviews of Marianne Challis: + New York Post: "Marianne Challis is Betty White in
cabaret - spunky, bright, satirical... and she has Mermanish rhythms. This is truly a
silver Challis." + Opera News: "A blazing talent (that) connected profoundly with
every song she tackled... Lovers of first-class pop singing should catch Marianne
Challis at her next major engagement." + Cabaret Scenes: "Like a fine wine (that
has) continued to mature in a most satisfying way... and, being witty and personable,
keeps her audience charmed as she segues from song to song with anecdotes and
asides."
"The Colony's 2008-2009 Cabaret Season will be our biggest and best ever. Instead
of having to fly up to New York City to see major cabaret stars at the Algonquin's
Oak Room, the Carlyle or Feinstein's at the Regency, fans of the Great American
Songbook now can enjoy many of the same extraordinary performers within the cozy
confines of the Royal Room. I can guarantee the quality of these performers because
I personally reviewed each one," promises Roger Everingham, general manager of Palm
Beach's favorite boutique hotel, which has repeatedly earned the highly coveted
"4-Diamond Rating," from AAA.
Widely considered to be one of the top cabaret venues in the country, The Colony's
Royal Room has scheduled another audience-pleasing line-up of performers. During
the Fall cabaret season (October-December 2008), each of the cabaret performers will
do an 8 p.m. show on Friday and Saturday -- except for The Four Freshmen, which will
perform Wednesday through Saturday, December 17-20.
During January through April 2009, the 8 p.m. shows will run Tuesday through
Saturday, with a 10 p.m. late show on Friday and Saturday - except for Jack Jones
(February 24 - March 7) who is not scheduled to perform any late shows.
The Colony Hotel - which The Palm Beach Post has hailed as "probably the best
cabaret on the planet" - plans another sizzling, song-filled season at the hotel's
celebrated Royal Room, featuring some really hot headliners straight from
Manhattan's most sophisticated nightspots and Broadway - including, in fact, a Royal
Room regular who was a 2008 Tony Award nominee.
For all Royal Room evening performances, the doors open at 6:45 p.m. for dinner and
the show starts around 8. To make reservations, call the hotel box-office at
