"Ms. Lynch is the farthest thing from the kind of self-absorbed professional crybaby so common in the cabaret world. Tall, lean and innately regal, Ms. Lynch is an adventurous singing comedian with an ear for esoteric cultural goodies. Incapable of sentimentality, she refuses to play by the rules.” ── The New York Times
New York, NY – Fresh from her iconic portrayal of Sue Sylvester on “Glee” and her Broadway debut as Miss Hannigan in “Annie,” Jane Lynch sets out on the musical comedy tour, “See Jane Sing.” The cabaret tour, which kicks off in at the Paramount Theatre in Austin, Texas on March 6th will bring the star to many cities throughout the U.S. including Los Angeles, Boston and Atlanta.
In “See Jane Sing,” the Emmy and Golden Globe winner takes audiences on a musical journey through a world of songs from Broadway to cabaret that delight the crowd with new takes on “If Wishes Were Rainbows”, “Mr. Monotony”, “Far From the Home I Love”, and “Skeletons/Blood” from A Mighty Wind. Not your typical Broadway narrative, Lynch, accompanied by a five-piece band, builds the evening around her musical chops and comedic wit and charm. Joining her on stage for parts of the show is special guest Kate Flannery of “The Office,” who plays Lynch’s mischievous vocal partner.
Lynch first cut her theatrical teeth at The Second City, Steppenwolf Theatre and in many church basements all over the greater Chicagoland area. In addition to hosting Hollywood Game Night, Jane’s recent film credits include A.C.O.D, Three Stooges, Wreck-It Ralph, Julie & Julia, Shrek Forever After, The Post Grad Survival Guide, Paul and Brownie Masters.
