SUMMARY:Sammons Cabaret: Kevin Paul Hofeditz
DESCRIPTION:Recently retired after 40 years as a university professor and administrator\, Kevin Paul Hofeditz returns to his roots as an actor and singer for the next leg of his career. Brimming with wit and charm\, Kevin appropriately shares lessons from his life with “It’s When All the Songs Make Sense\,” a show that dares to answer the question “how do you know when you’re in love?” Professing this insight through the songs of Stephen Sondheim\, Henry Mancini\, and Michel LeGrand\, among others\, it seems as though Kevin’s journey as a teacher isn’t over just yet.
