Risa Finkel sings in the park with music director Paul Greenwood on piano, Rex Benincasa on percussion, and Boots Maleson on bass, on what is sure to be a beautiful autumn afternoon. The show is directed by Geoffrey Stoner, with creative consultant David Friedman. Risa offers an eclectic program of songs, both familiar and new, combined with stories and humor, that celebrate the values we cherish most….freedom, family, love, opportunity and community. And what better place to celebrate than the majestic former Marshall Field estate, now the treasured Caumsett State Historic Park Preserve.

Sunday in the Park with Risa follows Risa’s wildly successful A Grand Night For Singing, performed on June 28th at Caumsett State Historic Park Preserve, as part of the Caumsett Foundation Summer Sunset Series.

Risa Finkel has had a long and illustrious career. She has appeared on stages and in concert venues on Long Island, in New York City and around the country as an actress and as a singer of music ranging from the American Popular songbook, to Broadway and opera. In addition to her love of performing and singing, Risa has always had a great interest in story-telling. Over the years, She has found that the best way to combine all of these talents and interests is in the art form of cabaret.
