IRVINE, CA – The Irvine Barclay Theatre is thrilled to present Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter Marc Cohn in Concert on Wednesday, November 09, 2011 at 8 pm.
Cohn, who received a Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 1992, will perform hits from his extensive catalogue (“Walking in Memphis,” “Silver Thunderbird,” etc.) as well as songs from his latest album Listening Booth: 1970, which highlights Cohn’s personal interpretations from the music and artists of the year 1970, including Cat Stevens, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Van Morrison, and many others.
“Cohn has one of rock's most soulful croons — a rich, immediately recognizable tenor that makes these songs his own.” – Rolling Stone
“Proving there’s life after Grammy’s Best New Artist curse, Marc Cohn hits his soft-rock stride on these remakes of songs from the 1970.” – People Magazine

About Irvine Barclay Theatre
Since opening its doors in 1990, Irvine Barclay Theatre has emerged as one of California's most imaginative performing arts showcases. A unique collaborative venture among the City of Irvine, the University of California, Irvine, and the private sector, the theatre has a reputation for wide-ranging programming in the fields of contemporary dance, music, and theater arts. Performances take place in the 756-seat Cheng Hall, renowned for its intimate atmosphere and superb acoustics.
Irvine Barclay Theatre is an independent non-profit organization established twenty years ago as an innovative public-private partnership with the vision of creating a unique performing arts venue. The private sector, the City of Irvine and the University of California, Irvine - combined funding and land to achieve a long-standing mutual goal.
The partners created Irvine Barclay Theatre to showcase top quality artists, to provide a superior facility for local and regional arts groups, and to enhance UCI's educational mission, particularly the programs generated by its School of the Arts. The theatre building is named for Mr. Richard Barclay, an area philanthropist, who provided the leading gift for the theatre's construction. The theatre auditorium is named for Dr. George and Arlene Cheng, also area philanthropists.
The Barclay's 750-seat Cheng Hall is now virtually in constant use. Irvine Barclay Theatre has gained a national reputation for its great acoustics, intimate feel, and the high quality of its production facilities. Among artists, it is a venue of choice when performing in southern California.
