A Lack of Interest: German singing sensation Ute Lemper was scheduled to perform at the Henry Fonda Theatre on Tuesday night, but no one heard her rendition of the Kurt Weill tunes she loves to sing. The show was canceled due to lack of interest, according to its promoter Nederlander Concerts. Nederlander handed out flyers to those who came to see the show, apologizing for the cancellation and explaining that tickets would be honored if the show was rescheduled. As of now, there are no firm plans for a new performance date, but Nederlander is pushing for a Monday-night show for the 25-year-old Lemper. Lemper’s publicist says she is disappointed; she has been looking forward to what would have been her first performance in Los Angeles.
