Alliana Lili YangThursdayMay 14, 2026 In Bloom: A Journey from Dreaming to Believing is an intimate cabaret evening shaped by reflection, musical craftsmanship, and emotional clarity. Drawing from Golden Age Broadway, contemporary musical theatre, and film, the program traces a young womans inner journey - from innocence and longing through love, ambition, and self-discovery, arriving finally at belief. Presented in the tradition exemplified by Feinsteins, this concert places storytelling and musicianship at its center. Each song is offered not as a character portrayal, but as a personal moment - allowing classical vocal technique to serve sincerity and artistic growth. The result is a carefully curated evening that favors nuance, connection, and elegance.BIOAlliana Alliana Lili Yang is a 15-year-old actor, dancer, and a classically trained vocalist based in the San Francisco Bay Area.
