(Cape May, NJ) -- Cape May Stage, South Jersey's premiere Equity theatre, is overjoyed to welcome Broadway star and jazz and blues singer, Sandra Reaves-Phillips performing in her one-woman show Me, Myself and You. Join Ms. Reaves-Phillips in an intimate tour-de-force performance on Monday, August 12 at 8 p.m.

 Sandra Reaves-Phillips has performed in theatrical performances, jazz festivals, and cabarets around the world. The recipient of a Drama League Recognition Award for Outstanding Performer, Rollin' on the T.O.B.A. on Broadway, Ms. Reaves-Phillips will sensually reel you in with a song, make you laugh at life and then blow the roof off with her blues.

She's also a recipient of a Woodie Award for her work on Broadway in the revival of Raisin.

This cabaret is like a potluck party of music that only she can host. Ms. Reaves-Phillips will provide you with an evening of unforgettable music. Audiences will surely agree with The Hollywood Reporter, who has called Ms. Reaves-Phillips "an atomic force of a performer."
