Saturday’s early show began with a wonderful medley of Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart’s “Blue Moon” and Burton Lane and E.Y. In fact, White’s new act is titled just that, “From Brooklyn to Broadway,” and features an able trio composed of Timothy Graphenreed on piano, Gary Haase on bass and Buddy Williams on drums. In her 90-minute set this past Saturday night at Arci’s Place, one of New York’s newest cabaret rooms, White demonstrated why she easily made the transition from a young, talented Brooklyn girl to a Broadway Tony winner. There’s a palpable sense of energy that radiates from White even when she is standing still, and when you mix that energy with her explosion of voice, thrilling moments ensue.

Lillias White has one of the most expressive faces of anyone in the musical theatre today - big, flashing eyes plus a joyous smile that won’t quit - not to mention a body (arms, hands, legs, hips) that gets as much of a workout in a performance as her phenomenal vocal chords.
