CLASSIC WHITNEY

CLASSIC WHITNEY: ALIVE! - The hit solo show from Broadway's Kevin Smith Kirkwood is guaranteed to satisfy longtime Whitney Houston fans, and novices alike.

This special Feinstein’s edition of CLASSIC WHITNEY will feature local Bay Area fav Jocelyn “Jojo” Thompson-Jordan as Aretha Franklin and Music Director Drew Wutke on the keys. 

After playing to packed houses at The Cutting Room and Joe's Pub, being featured on NBC TV, and being hailed as a "Critics' Pick" by Time Out New York, Kirkwood channels the voice, look and spirit of the late icon Whitney Houston as she descends from the choir of heaven and inhabits the body of Kirkwood to perform renditions of special live concert arrangements of hits from the diva's incredible catalog.

Kirkwood has performed CLASSIC WHITNEY! around the world, on Cruise Lines, and even a command performance at Whitney's estate.

The show was hailed as "pitch perfect" by The Huffington Post, with BroadwayWorld.com calling it "thrilling" adding "Kirkwood's good-natured performance delivered Whitney at her best." According to Washington Square News, "to say that Kevin Smith Kirkwood dazzled as Whitney Houston would be an understatement. You couldn't take your eyes off of him!"
