Profile for BwayBuddha

 Michael Riedel wrote about her this morning -

You may not have heard of Katharine Mehrling, but she’s the most famous musical theater star in “all of Berlin,” to quote the emcee of the Kit Kat Klub, having starred there in “Cabaret,” “Evita,” “Hair” and more.

She’s making her first appearance in New York Saturday night at Joe’s Pub. In addition to showtunes, she’ll perform Édith Piaf songs — in French, English and German.

Willkommen, bienvenue, welcome to New York, Ms. Mehrling!

I saw her as Evita in Vienna and she was astonishing, truly an incredible voice. A friend saw her concert last year in Berlin and apparently her Piaf interpretations are incredible. She's making her NY debut at Joe's Pub next weekend 9/22. She's a huge star in Germany and Austria - anyone else see her ?
