'Simply Barbra and Friends' at The Palm Cabaret Tracy Parks - The Palm Cabaret & Bar
December 10, 2014

Steven Brinberg is an acclaimed vocalist and impressionist who is best known for being the premier impersonator of music legend Barbra Streisand. He literally appears to transform into her, both physically and vocally, in an extraordinary musical experience. So much more than a garden-variety drag performer, his professional performances on stage include Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, The Kennedy Center, and on Broadway in a benefit production of Funny Girl, featuring Whoopi Goldberg. Steven also enjoyed a very successful run at The Palm Cabaret and Bar last season, where he was met with rave reviews.

Many have tried to impersonate Barbra Streisand over the years, but Steven Brinberg takes it to an entirely new level with all-live vocals, and by having perfected the voice, mannerisms and nuances of the mega-star. In fact, he’s so good that many find it difficult to tell them apart vocally.

Steven also performs his remarkable portrayals of the vocal talents of Julie Andrews, Ethel Merman, Cher, Eartha Kitt, Neil Diamond and many more. He has performed Simply Barbra throughout the United States and has toured the world for over a decade. He has recorded two albums and has appeared in several feature films and numerous times on television.

Steven also appeared in concert with the late Academy Award-winning composer and conductor Marvin Hamlisch, who was a close friend and frequent collaborator of Streisand’s, and the Symphony Orchestras of Dallas, Milwaukee, Buffalo and Norfolk. Steven’s prior appearances with Mr. Hamlisch include one with Barbara Cook and the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center and another at Heinz Hall in Pittsburgh. Mr. Hamlisch described the Simply Barbra experience this way, “When you hear Steven’s Simply Barbra CD, for the first brief moment, you almost think, ‘My God! Is that really her?’ It’s so captivating! Not only does he have a wonderful take on her — not at all mean-spirited — and this ability to imitate her, he also captures a lot of moments and nuances that are terrific. It was very impressive.” - Marvin Hamlisch

Steven is thrilled to return to Puerto Vallarta and The Palm with the talented Chris Denny, who will accompany him at the piano. Performances of Simply Barbra will be in the evenings beginning December 18th through January 7th, 2015. All shows begin at 7:00 pm except for the January 7 show at 9:30 pm.
