Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – The spotlight is set to shine once again at The Palm Cabaret as Broadway star Karen Mason returns to her beloved second home, Puerto Vallarta. On December 29 and January 4 at 7:00 pm, the Grammy-nominated artist will take the stage for her highly anticipated new show, Karen Mason: Broadway Baby! This performance follows a series of sold-out appearances last year, cementing her status as a local favorite who consistently delivers nights filled with laughter, storytelling, and vocal excellence.
Mason’s illustrious career spans the heights of New York’s theater scene, including her celebrated run as Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard and her role as the original Tanya in the smash-hit Mamma Mia!, for which she received a Drama Desk nomination. Her versatility is equally evident on screen, where she recently appeared as Mrs. Marsh in the Netflix series Halston.
This deep well of experience informs every moment of her live performances, bringing what The New York Times describes as “intense and intimate” emotion to the cabaret stage.
The upcoming setlist promises a journey through some of the most iconic music in the American songbook. Accompanied by longtime Music Director Christopher Denny and under the direction of Barry Kleinbort, Mason will perform powerhouse hits such as “All That Jazz” and “New York, New York.” Fans can also look forward to poignant renditions of “Something’s Coming” from West Side Story and the evocative “For Good” from Wicked. Her voice, often compared by critics to the rich resonance of legends like Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand, provides a unique depth to these familiar classics.
Beyond her stage credits, Mason is a titan of the recording industry with nine studio albums to her name and a staggering 14 MAC Awards, including a Lifetime Achievement Award. Her connection to the audience is fueled by this lifelong dedication to her craft, ensuring that every show feels like a personal invitation into her world. With a reputation for delivering “surprises” and an energy that keeps her at the top of her game, guests should prepare for an evening that will likely end with a spirited cry for an encore.
Tickets are expected to move quickly given her previous record-breaking runs in the city. For those looking to experience a masterclass in theater and song, Mason’s return to The Palm Cabaret is the definitive way to kick off the new year’s entertainment schedule.
The Palm Cabaret and Bar is located at 508 Olas Altas in the heart of the Puerto Vallarta Romantic Zone. Tickets can be purchased at the venue’s box office, which is open on show days from 11 am to 10 pm, or online at ThePalmCabaret.com.
