Ruth Leon recommends… The Prayer – Liz Callaway and Nicholas Callaway Foster

Ruth Leon recommends… The Prayer – Liz Callaway and Nicholas Callaway Foster

The Prayer

 I’ve known and admired Liz Callaway for years. She is a Tony and Grammy nominee and Emmy Award-winning actress, singer and recording artist. She made her Broadway debut in Stephen Sondheim’s Merrily We Roll Along, received a Tony Award nomination for her performance in Baby, and for five years, won acclaim as Grizabella in Cats. She has also starred in the original casts of Miss Saigon, The Three Musketeers, and The Look of Love.

She, and her sister, singer/songwriter Ann Hampton Callaway, are the top layer of cabaret performers playing concerts, together and separately, throughout the world.

What I didn’t know about Liz is that she has a son. Well, I knew she had a son. What I didn’t know was that this son, Nicholas Callaway Foster, is also a successful Chicago-based singer, actor, and cabaret performer. And he’s terrific. See for yourself. Here he is, with Liz, at 54 Below, New York’s premier cabaret venue, singing The Prayer in Italian and English.
