The birds ate—and she left no crumbs. Viral internet sensation Coco Marshall, whose riff-tastic performance of “Feed the Birds” in a local production of Mary Poppins JR. got theatre fans losing their minds on social media recently, will make her NYC cabaret debut with Coco Marshall: A Star is Born at the Laurie Beechman Theatre October 19. The performance will also stream live throughout the U.S.
Marshall, quickly dubbed “Mariah Poppins” for bringing expertly executed ’90s pop–style vocal stylings to the Sherman Brothers classic, will be joined by several Broadway notables during the performance for some duets, including Benjamin Pajak (The Lost Boys), Cara Rose DiPietro (Elsbeth), Echo Picone (Trevor: The Musical), Gabriella Pizzolo (Stranger Things), Kuhoo Verma (Heathers), Leana Rae Concepcion (The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee), and Taylor Iman Jones (SIX: The Musical).
Press notes share that proceeds from the evening will support Marshall’s college fund.
Patrick B. Phillips is serving as music director and arranger. Benson Drive Productions‘ George Strus is producing.
