Best Cabaret

Jacques Brel is about roses and wine, nostalgia, love, and bright, toe-tapping songs. But there is also a sense of bitter world-weariness to Jacques Brel’s music, which was brought to life by three talented musicians and four superb performers, including singer Erica Sarzin-Borrillo. Sarzin-Borrillo is a unique stage presence, lacquered and artificial — but there’s a profound reservoir of passion at her core. The raw yearning she brought to “Marieke,” one of Brel’ s most powerful songs, was one of this revue’s unforgettable moments.
