Christine's Great Dames won the 2008 New York NightLife Award, the Backstage Bistro Award and received a MAC nomination as well as being named one of the "Top Ten Memorable Theatre Moments of the Year" on BroadwayWorld.com. This year it returns to South Africa for the 3rd time (Capetown) and will have a 4- week run in June at London's Jermyn Street theatre in the heart of the West End. Show Business Weekly named her 2007s "Best Female Cabaret Performer". Other cabaret work has earned her a MAC Award and several nominations, as well as a guest spot on John McD's Cabaret Corner on the Rosie O'Donnell Show. She just finished a very festive run of Christine Pedi's Holly Jolly Christmas Follyat the Laurie Beechman Theatre and hopes for a return engagement next season.

Her long association with the off-broadway satirical revue Forbidden Broadway has earned Christine a Drama Desk nomination, an LA Ovation award and lots of frequent flyer miles (Tokyo, Singapore, Australia & London's West End). She was most recently on Broadway in Eric Bogosians Talk Radio starring Liev Schrieber. (Cooincidentally, you can hear her hosting the Broadway Breakfast daily on SIRIUS/XM radio). Her Broadway debut was in the revival of Little Me starring Martin Short. Other stage credits include The A Train Plays, The 24 Hour Plays, Edith Wharton's Xingu, Dalliance in Vienna at the American Theatre of Actors, Fanny Brice, Audrey in Little Shop, A Broadway Diva Christmas and Carlotta the Gypsy Cow (don't ask).

Guest appearances include Showstoppers at Avery Fisher Hall, the Broadway by the Year series at Town Hall, the Algonquin, Sardi's, Broadway Cares Gypsy of the Year and Easter Bonnet benefits, the Queen Elizabeth 2 & the Queen Mary 2. Christine performed with Marvin Hamlish & the Indianapolis Symphony as well as many other orchestras throughout the U.S. & Canada, and has sung for President and Mrs Clinton (playing Hilary Clinton). Sopranos fans may recognize her as the dearly departed Mrs. Bobby Baccala (He loved her so much he couldn't defrost her ziti).
