Jenny Lamb, 31

As the sad-eyed hooker in Theo Ubique's Jacques Brel revue, this sultry performer with a smoky voice manages to be both cynical and vulnerable. A fine singer and an emotional, intense actress, Lamb is the perfect foil for Brel--or, surely, any other composer suited to the predawn hours. Her show has been extended through summer. We're waiting hopefully for Lamb's next desperate shot.
