Award-winning vocalist, actress, and entertainer Quinn Lemley returns to the stage at the intimate Triad Theater (158 West 72nd Street, New York, NY) on Thursday, September 17, 2026, at 6:30 PM as part of her acclaimed 2026 residency. The performance features her high-energy jazz show Swinging Hot Tomato, promising an evening of rhythm, style, and personality that celebrates jazz, blues, swing, cabaret, Broadway, pop, and rock.
A Star in Her Element
Broadway World’s “Best Female Vocalist” and a Bistro Award winner, Lemley is known for her powerhouse vocals, electrifying stage presence, and ability to blend classic glamour with contemporary flair. A graduate of NYU Tisch School of the Arts and a member of SAG-AFTRA, AEA, and the Recording Academy, she has built a multifaceted career as a performer, speaker, producer, director, and TV host.
Lemley has starred in hit touring productions like Burlesque to Broadway and her signature theatrical concert Rita Hayworth: The Heat Is On!, which explores the life of Hollywood’s legendary “Love Goddess.” Her residency at the Triad alternates between Swinging Hot Tomato—where she performs as herself—and the Rita Hayworth show, allowing audiences to experience two sides of her dynamic artistry.
In Swinging Hot Tomato, Lemley delivers selections from her seven albums, backed by a sizzling trio or quartet, with special guest guitarist David Sexta. The show draws from her catalog, including tracks tied to her Grammy-considered release Rita Hayworth Revealed, a lush big-band tribute to the iconic songs of Hayworth’s film career. Expect warmth, wit, storytelling, and plenty of unexpected fun in this intimate setting.
Critical Acclaim and Legacy
Critics have praised Lemley’s performances enthusiastically. SiriusXM has called her “hot, Hot, HOT,” while The New York Times described her as “dazzling” and Backstage hailed her as “the genuine article.” Her work spans Off-Broadway credits, television appearances (Good Morning America, Oprah), films, and international jazz performances, including as the iconic face of The Half Note in Athens, Greece.
This September date marks one of five special nights in her Triad residency (alongside June 4, July 16, October 22, and December 10, 2026), offering New York audiences multiple chances to catch her in top form.
