Mandy Patinkin begins a two-week residency at Manhattan's Public Theater tonight in honor of the 20th anniversary of his first concert at the esteemed New York City venue. Accompanied by pianist Paul Ford, Mandy will alternate among three different programs, beginning tonight with Dress Casual, featuring music by Rodgers and Hammerstein, Stephen Sondheim, Harry Chapin, and others, as he did in his 1995 Nonesuch album, Oscar & Steve; encore presentations of that program will be performed December 9, 13, 16, and 20.

Next is Celebrating Sondheim, beginning this Thursday and repeating the 15th and 19th. This song set is a journey through the music and lyrics of the legendary composer, who was the subject of Mandy's 2002 Nonesuch release, Mandy Patinkin Sings Sondheim. Mandy was nominated for a Tony Award in 1984 for originating the title role in Sondheim's Sunday in the Park with George.

And finally, starting this Friday and playing again the 17th and on closing night, December 21, is Mamaloshen, an exploration of traditional, classic, and contemporary songs sung entirely in Yiddish, sharing a title and repertoire with his 1998 Nonesuch collection of such songs.
