This special album, dedicated to Linda Polase Segal, showcases select photos from a 2009 two-person show at the Duplex in Greenwich Village, New York City. Directed by our friend, Helen Baldassare, the show was aptly titled “The Long and the Short of It.” Although it may appear casually conceived, a cabaret performance is highly choreographed with respect to movement, lights, and sound. This is aptly illustrated by the instructive notes from the director, below.
