Per playbill.com, Andrew Gans:
Ute Lemper, who has starred in both the London and Broadway productions of Chicago, begins a limited engagement at Joe's Pub — the intimate cabaret located within the Public Theater — Dec. 10.

Lemper will offer Last Tango in Berlin through Dec. 13. She will be joined by musicians Vana Gierig and Tito Castro. The evening, according to press notes, is described as "a voyage through Kabarett and Tango in Berlin, Paris, New York and Buenos Aires — tales of love, loss and fatal passion."

Ute Lemper made her Broadway debut in the revival of Kander and Ebb's Chicago, and she is known throughout the world for her unique solo concerts that feature an eclectic array of material. She was named Billboard Crossover Artist of 1993-94, and her theatre credits feature roles in Peter Pan, Cabaret and Blue Angel. Lemper's many solo discs include "Ute Lemper Sings Kurt Weill," "Illusions," "Punishing Kiss," "Berlin Cabaret Songs" and "City of Strangers." Recent CD releases include "Blood & Feathers" (also on DVD) and "Between Yesterday and Tomorrow."

Joe's Pub is located within the Public Theater at 425 Lafayette Street.
