Special Gatherings

“The dinner party, as a metaphor for Gospel living, is not about cultivating a society of one’s own kind, or getting ahead through entertaining. Rather, the dinner party is about celebrating life with your neighbor, crossing the boundaries of race and class, and sharing the bounty of the harvest with those less fortunate than you. That’s what it means to ‘let mutual love continue while showing hospitality to strangers.’ ”

New York City Opera’s Peter Kendall Clark garnered global media attention for his nightly stoop concerts at the height of the pandemic in Brooklyn Heights, performing 100 consecutive times. Last July while vacationing in Welfleet, he brought his unique one man show to St. James The Fisherman and is thrilled to be returning to to the Chapel on August 15th. Since last summer, Peter has made his Carnegie Hall debut, starred in an award winning production of Sondheim’s A Little Night Music, and continued to give concerts for his NYC neighbors. He has been in demand around the country for his Cabaret Show “SONGS FROM THE LEDGE” returning to the Cape directly from performing Donizetti’s comic opera Don Pasquale and selling out the famed Blue Strawberry in St. Louis. Don’t miss this heartwarming evening of storytelling filled with Classic Broadway, Sondheim, Opera, and violin.

“The hottest ticket in town!”

-The New York Post

“Call him the ““Brownstone Baritone”. Every week, Peter Kendall Clark gets on a stoop in Brooklyn and the magic begins!”
-CBS Inside Edition

“…perfectly cast as Fredrik. Handsome and with considerable dignity he clearly and unashamedly conveys the emotional helplessness of this poor man. He brings to the role a rich, strong voice and impeccable diction.”
-Broadway World
