Ana Gasteyer Comes to The RRazz Room, Nov 16-18

The RRazz Room, San Francisco's premier nightclub, presents the debut engagement of stage and screen star Ana Gasteyer from "Suburgatory", "Saturday Night Live," and Broadway's Wicked. For her show "Elegant Songs from a Handsome Woman," Ana brings her unique comic wit and style to the stage in her new show of songs and stories, hot off engagements in New York, Toronto, Florida, Provincetown, and Los Angeles.

The comedy superstar dons a dress and works her hardest to keep the evening elegant with her powerhouse vocals showcased in Broadway melodies, and beloved – if forgotten – standards and showtunes from Gershwin to Gilbert and Sullivan! With a gentle assist from Director Julian Fleisher and Bandleader Jon Spurney, Miss Gasteyer fronts a swinging ensemble in an evening that promises to be class, brassy and sassy, or class, brassy, quirky and tear-jerky, depending on world events and/or her hair frizz factor!

During her six year stint, she created some of the most famous SNL characters including middle school music teacher Bobbie Moughan-Culp, NPR radio host Margaret Jo, Lilith Fair poetess Cinder Calhoun, as well as spot-on impressions of Martha Stewart, Celine Dion and Hillary Rodham Clinton.
