Christine Ebersole in San Francisco

Dear sweet Christine played San Francisco this past Sunday.



Never heard of her? Think back to “Saturday Night Live” circa 1981-82 (she was a cast member) or the recent episodes of “Cashmere Mafia.”

But what I know her for is her 2 Tony awards for “42nd Street” and “Grey Gardens”.

Seems her cabaret show was a smash. The “SF Chronicle” had this to say:

“Innocence and impishness, irony and wisdom, character and flashes of sorrow - it was all there to be seen and heard in 70 expertly fashioned minutes of music.”

And of course her funny banter:

“Of her return to San Francisco, she said brightly, ‘it's exciting to come back here and work on my gay icon status.’"

Cracked me up.
