Life is a lot these days. Isn’t it time for some happiness?

Settle in at MAC for Happy Hour with Heidi and Mark. Not that kind of happy hour; rather, an evening of songs and stories that will incite joy, laughter and, if we’re lucky – happiness. Longtime collaborators and friends, Heidi and Mark have woven together songs from a myriad of styles (think Great American Songbook, movies, pop/rock, and of course, Broadway) to give you a respite from the cold, cruel world.

A versatile performing artist, Heidi Hayes enjoys a career in cabaret and musical theatre. Cabaret venues include The Metropolitan Room (NYC), Society Hill Playhouse (Philadelphia), Darlington Arts Center (Delco) and The Arts House (Singapore). Heidi’s recent theatre performances include Miss Betty in The Carols at Montgomery Theater, Fraulein Schneider in Cabaret and Baruska in Once, both at Hangar Theatre. Prior to the pandemic, Heidi toured Asia in Troika Entertainment’s production of Sister Act.
