I love surprises. Whether it's that series I decided to stream based solely on the poster art, or that Christmas present someone gave me as an afterthought that turned out to be my most prized possession, or that kitchen gadget I picked up completely on a whim that I now wonder how I ever lived without. How wonderful when a performer can give you the same experience. I honestly chose Eve Marie Shahoian's show, TAKE ME TO THE WORLD at Don't Tell Mama because I had an unexpected free night that I wasn't sure how to fill. Boy, did I choose right! Not only is Eve Marie Shahoian a delightful soprano, but she also has something to say, and she says it with style and passion and a great deal of flair.
