Info for After The Ball

2022 release from two-time Tony Award winner Christine Ebersole. Featuring American classics by composers and songwriters from Jerome Kern to Joni Mitchell in original arrangements by Broadway veteran Lawrence Yurman. These recording finds Ebersole at the start of a brave new chapter, reflecting on life, love and family now that the last of her three adopted children has flown the nest. After the Ball is produced by Ebersole herself, in collaboration with Yurman.

A born singer and storyteller, Ebersole has made her mark on major roles in multiple genres. Best known for headlining and winning a string of top honors in such Broadway blockbusters as 42nd Street, Grey Gardens, Camelot and War Paint, she has also appeared in Candide at LA Opera; in concert at Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center; in feature films from Amadeus to The Wolf of Wall Street; and on television including Gypsy, "Saturday Night Live," and "Bob Hearts Abishola," the hit sitcom in which she currently stars on CBS. Her acclaimed discography already includes Sunday in New York, Strings Attached and Christine Ebersole Sings Noël Coward - hailed as "an essential recording" by BroadwayWorld - on which she also collaborated with Lawrence Yurman.

About the new album, Ebersole explains: "Life is always changing. It's always moving and coming at you in unexpected ways. When the family is growing up, you want everything to stay the same. But there's a time when the music stops, and the children must go. Everything gets really quiet, and all the balloons that were up in the air come down to the floor. Then you realize how much you want to preserve it all, especially the moments of joy and love. That's the feeling I get from singing these songs."
