Stories of Cole Porter’s life against the backdrop of his great love songs in this “wildly entertaining” show with Lisa
Faith Phillips, Deanna Kirk and John Di Martino on piano.
Award-winning writer and performer Lisa Faith Phillips weaves funny and touching tales of Cole
Porter’s life, loves and the songs which they inspired. From his wealthy childhood
in Peru, Indiana through Yale and Harvard Law School, to his marriage to Linda
Thomas who accepted that he was gay, he lived in Paris for 20 years, and
traveled the world, eventually moving to New York and Hollywood. In 1928 at 37 Cole’s
Broadway career took off with the success of Paris, followed by
many more popular shows. He wrote the music and lyrics for over one thousand
songs.
Lisa Faith Phillips has performed her original shows in NYC, London, Dublin, Barcelona and at the DC Capital and
