SAN FRANCISCO REVIEW
I SAW ONE OF THE FINEST PERFORMERS I'VE EVER SEEN LAST EVENING AT THE RRAZZ ROOM IN THE HOTEL NIKKO, AND THAT'S THE FABULOUS KAREN AKERS. PERFORMING HER NEW COLE PORTER SHOW, "ANYTHING GOES", AND BEAUTIFULLY ACCOMPANIED BY PIANO AND BASS, SHE SANG A WELL-CHOSEN PROGRAM OF COLE PORTER SONGS SEVERAL OF WHICH I'D NEVER HEARD BEFORE. WHAT A TALENT! WHAT A SHOW! HER VOICE, TIMING, GOOD LOOKS, PERSONALITY, SENSE OF HUMOR AND SUPERB STAGE PRESENCE COMBINED TO MAKE THIS AN EVENING OF PURE ENTERTAINMENT PLEASURE. SHE DOES IT ALL. THE MARVELOUS KAREN AKERS AND HER COLE PORTER SHOW, "ANYTHING GOES", IS NOW APPEARING AT THE RRAZZ ROOM IN THE HOTEL NIKKO THRU THIS SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 1ST. I'D ADVISE YOU TO MAKE YOUR PLANS RIGHT NOW TO SEE THIS WONDERFUL PERFORMER. AND I DO HOPE THAT THE RRAZZ ROOM BRINGS HER BACK VERY, VERY SOON.
FOR KGO NEWSTALK ENTERTAINMENT, I'M JERRY FRIEDMAN.
