Quinn Lemley is bringing the glamour back to New York — the real kind — and she’s doing it the way it should be done: live, electric, and unapologetically cinematic.
Her hit show Rita Hayworth: The Heat Is On! — A Life in Concert is returning to the Triad Theater with a trio of dates that give you two very different experiences: the full, brassy punch of a Big Band night, and the sleek, intimate vibe of the Quartet performances. Either way, you’re not walking into a “cute little cabaret.” You’re walking into a full-blown moment.
Lemley doesn’t just sing these songs — she inhabits them. The show is a high-voltage celebration of Rita’s mystique, but it’s also layered with heart, humor, and that old-Hollywood shimmer that most people try to fake and she somehow makes feel effortless. It’s storytelling with a backbone. Big voice, big presence, and that rare thing: control without stiffness.
Upcoming Shows at the Triad Theater
- Saturday, January 10 at 6:30 PM — Big Band
- Wednesday, February 18 at 6:30 PM — Quartet
- Thursday, March 19 at 6:30 PM — Quartet
Tickets: $25–$50 (plus $25 food & beverage minimum)
Tickets available at TriadNYC.com or QuinnLemley.com/rita
And here’s the kicker: Quinn isn’t only lighting it up onstage.
Her TV series Secrets of the Stage is the perfect extension of what she does best — pulling you into the real world behind performance. It’s stylish, sharp, and genuinely fun, but it also has substance: real stories, real artists, and the kind of behind-the-curtain insight you don’t get from polished PR soundbites. It feels like you’re being let in on the good stuff.
So yeah — if you’re in NYC, these Triad dates aren’t “something to do.” They’re the kind of nights you plan around, because you want to be able to tell people later, I saw that live.
