Robert Glenn is a familiar face in the musical theatre, television and cabaret communities of San Francisco, Orange county,
Los Angeles and Palm Springs.
Robert started piano lessons at the age of four and has been performing since he was seven. San Francisco audiences know
him from his more than 6 years at such venues as Martuni's, The Swallow, The Plush Room, Cafe du Paris and Piaf's as well
as performances at many retirement communities, charity fundraisers and frequently a guest pianist for the Richmond/Ermitt
AIDS Foundation.
Robert now resides in Los Angeles and keeps himself busy performing his one-man shows and producing cabaret shows at the
Gardenia, The Gold 9, Masquers, Feinstein's at the Cinegrill and Vermont. He is often a guest in other performer's shows and
has worked with many top names who drop in regularly to sing with him at clubs like The Rainbow Cactus in Palm Springs, The
Other Side in Silver Lake and The Boulevard in Pasadena. It's no wonder Jan Wahl of KRON in San Francisco said "Robert
is an amazingly skilled and amazingly entertaining high-energy performer from Broadway show tunes to down-home good-times
music!"
And a recent review from Lisa Popeil Voiceworks said:
"LIVE PERFORMING IN PASADENA:

tunes) open mic in LA, check out The Boulevard/Club S every Sunday 5-9pm beginning November 23rd. World-class accompanist

Robert Glenn and Carole Stuart's show, "The Funny Side of Love," at the Gardenia, 2/12/04
BY
GINA ZOLLMAN :
It was a Valentine's show, dedicated to love songs and sentimental feelings, and the duo Carole Stuart and Robert
Glenn offered up their unique brand of entertaining in a sweet, almost vaudevillian style. Robert Glenn, accomplished
musician, Music Conductor, piano accompanist, showcase host and singer, helmed the show from his unusual (for the Gardenia)
standup electronic piano. Situated in front of the existing grand, this gave him a better chance to see the audience
and connect. "Taking a Chance on Love" was the up tempo, opening number...

MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENT DISCOVERY: Recently, on a tip from friends, we dropped into a small bar/lounge to hear a performer named Robert Glenn. We were
told that his speciality was Broadway. Broadway music in an informal setting - sounded like a bit of Manhattan in Pasadena - why not? Well whatever expectations we had were blown away. In a totallly unpretentious
lounge, mingling and having drinks with a few dozen fellow broadway fans, we enjoyed truly memorable evening. Robert Glenn
is a gifted musician and showman who brings the best of Broadway alive for you. It’s entertainment of the highest order.
As an added bonus, Robert has attracted talented singers who appear on some evenings to be accompanied by him. More great
music! This all happens at The Boulevard, 3199 East Foothill (a block west of Madre) in Pasadena on Sunday evenings from 5.30pm
- 9pm. There’s no cover charge and drink prices are very reasonable. Check it out and discover a gem of a local happening.
( suggest you call The Boulevard at 626-356-9304 just to make sure Robert is appearing before you drop in).
