Ute Lemper has performed on Broadway and on stages across the world. Her extensive career includes playing Velma Kelly in "Chicago." Now, she's in New York for a brand new show.
"Rendezvous With Marlene" is based on a conversation Lemper had with Marlene Dietrich in 1988. The 3-hour long conversation helped create this show.
Lemper is returning to Cafe Carlyle for the performance. The show starts tomorrow, February 27th, and runs through March 3rd.
