Laura Benanti, the multi-talented star of stage, screen and television, delighted another sold-out audience at last Monday evening’s Riverside Theatre Supper Club.

Guests gathered for cocktails in the Orchid Lobby before filtering into the Waxlax Theatre, transformed into a swanky Skyline Room, to dine on a lovely dinner by Elizabeth D. Kennedy & Co.

Friends Committee chairs Rosemary Haverland and Anna Bain Slater thanked sponsors and underwriters before introducing Allen Cornell, producing artistic director/CEO, who noted the vital importance of fundraisers such as the Supper Club, saying, “You make the magic on this stage happen.”

Benanti, who won a Tony Award for her portrayal of Louise in the 2008 Broadway revival of “Gypsy,” captivated her Vero Beach audience, beginning with snippets from the musical “She Loves Me” – calling the selection the “show in a nutshell of 15 minutes or less.”

Relating that her 2-year-old daughter is an “old soul” who wanted a jazz-themed birthday party, she and Todd Almond, her music director and accompanist, sang Harry Chapin’s “Remember When the Music,” before she beguiled guests with several medleys sung by Rosemary Clooney, and Joni Mitchell.

She turned the stage over to Almond, who had the audience rocking with laughter with a piece combining the works of two completely dissimilar artists – Dolly Parton and Bach – singing “He’s Gonna Marry Me” and “Jolene” as if composed by Bach.

Sharing that she recently finished performing her “dream role” as Eliza Doolittle in the Broadway version of “My Fair Lady,” Benanti charmed with “I Could Have Danced All Night,” before taking a completely different tack, bringing down the house with a humorous medley of trending, rap and show tunes that ended with “RESPECT.”

Throughout her performance, Benanti, whose parents were also Broadway performers, shared snippets of her life, including her first role as the Maria understudy in “The Sound of Music,” where, when the star went on vacation, she played opposite Richard Chamberlin. She described and mimicked that fright as she sang the first notes of “The Sound of Music” before finishing the piece in professional splendor.

Benanti concluded with a stunningly beautiful a cappella rendition of “A Quiet Thing,” from the short-lived musical “Flora the Red Menace.” But, judging from the overwhelmingly positive reaction of the audience last Monday, the memory of Benanti’s Vero Beach performance will live on for many years to come.
