‘Glee’ actress kicks off Sunset season with song, Medflys turn back the clock<br />
SERVING UP a mix of cabaret and comedy, singer and<br />
actress Jane Lynch kicks off Sunset Center’s 2015-16 season<br />
Saturday.<br />
Best known for her portrayal of cheerleading coach Sue<br />
Sylvester in the television series, “Glee,” Lynch won an<br />
Emmy and a Golden Globe for her efforts. She also earned<br />
many fans for her role in the hit film, “40-Year-Old Virgin.”<br />
While Lynch has had much success on stage and on<br />
screen, her Sunset Center performance will also showcase<br />
her voice — and her varied taste in music. <strong>The</strong> set list will<br />
span 150 years.<br />
“It’s all over the place,” Lynch said of her repertoire. “I<br />
plan to sing some Broadway tunes, some pop songs from the<br />
1960s, and some jazz. It isn’t in the show unless it’s something<br />
I love.”<br />
Despite her busy schedule as an actress, Lynch is also pursuing<br />
her musical aspirations. “I have time for it — and I love<br />
it all,” she declared.<br />
For Lynch, the trip to <strong>Carmel</strong> will bring back memories.<br />
“We took a trip from Chicago to California when I was<br />
young,” she told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Pine</strong> <strong>Cone</strong>. “Clint Eastwood was mayor,<br />
and my dad was very excited about that. We knew Doris Day<br />
was there as well. I remember walking through town and<br />
playing in the surf — it was a lovely time.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> folks at Sunset Center are thrilled Lynch will kick off<br />
the performing arts center’s new season.<br />
“We’re honored to have her,” Alexandra Richardson of<br />
On A High Note<br />
By CHRIS COUNTS<br />
Sunset Center said. “She is one of the wittiest actors working<br />
today. She’s kind of the whole package: sarcastic but goodhearted,<br />
hip and leading-edge, but also warm and fun. She’s<br />
been one of my favorites since before ‘Glee’ became a sensation,<br />
and this campy cabaret show is just the perfect platform<br />
for her style.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> performance starts at 8 p.m. A reception with<br />
Champagne and chocolates precedes the show at 7 p.m.<br />
Sunset Center is located at San Carlos and Ninth. Tickets are<br />
$79 and $99. Call (831) 620-2048.<br />
