Molly Ringwald Takes the Stage

Actress-turned-jazz singer MOLLY RINGWALD visits Wilmington this month with a night of songs from her debut album.

“An Evening with Molly Ringwald” takes place at 7 p.m. September 17 at University of North Carolina Wilmington’s Kenan Auditorium. Ringwald will performs songs from her album Except Sometimes, which was released earlier this year. Her appearance kicks off UNCW Presents’ 2014-15 season.

The Golden Globe-nominated actress and ’80s teen movie queen started performing with her father’s jazz bad at the age of three and has described her album as a long time coming. And yes, the album includes a crooning rendition of “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” for the nostalgic The Breakfast Club fans.
