Wednesday, June 16, 6 to 9 pm
Cabaret at King's Daughter's Inn
204 N. Buchanan Boulevard

"Come to the Cabaret" in support of Preservation Durham's 35th 
Anniversary celebration.  Ellen Ciompi (vocal) and Glenn Mehrbach 
(piano) will perform "Something Old, Something New" as you enjoy 
wine, soft drinks, and dinner hors d'oeuvres at Durham's beautifully 
restored King's Daughters Inn.

Just as Preservation Durham is dedicated to the preservation of 
Durham's unique architectural heritage, Ellen & Glenn are dedicated 
to the singular art of cabaret.  The two have been performing 
together since 2002 and exploring the traditional cabaret literature 
of the Great American Song Book as well as that of Broadway and 
Hollywood musicals, even as they expand the genre to embrace 
songwriters as diverse as Paul Simon, Tom Waits, the Beatles, the 
Beach Boys, and Harry Chapin.  Glenn is a staff accompanist at Duke 
University, music director at the Unitarian Universalist Church of 
Chapel Hill, and a music teacher at Camelot Academy in Durham.  Ellen 
holds both a BA and a MA in music; in addition, she is also a RN, 
practicing as a surgical nurse at UNC Hospital in Chapel Hill.

Conveniently located across the street from Duke's East Campus on N 
Buchanan Blvd, the King's Daughters Inn, which dates from 1925, 
opened in 2009, after a two-year gut renovation by owners Colin & 
Deanna Crossman.  Their efforts earned them Preservation Durham's 
prestigious Pyne Preservation Award "for sensitive restoration 
projects that preserve the architecture and heritage of Durham".  We 
look forward to seeing you there!

Cost: $25, Tickets may be purchased online at

Reservations can be made by contacting Preservation Durham by phone
