2014 MAC Award Nominee MargOH! Channing is celebrating her birthday one martini at a time in UNCORKED! :The Birthday Edition at Pangea May 19 7:30PM This show is a boozy romp . This is the deconstruction of drag, through the life and times of the often demented, occasionally glamorous and always drunken Diva, MargOH! Channing, as she (with MAN-ee Champagne's hazy but unfaltering support) tackles topics such as rape, incest, politics and the one thing we all have in common: dysfunction! Comedic monologues, original music and sloshy standards, this brassy, boozy chanteuse and her glitter-dipped Gayiance will pop your cork with love, laughter booze and song

Joining in on the birthday fun are of course MargOH!'s gayiance the delightful MAN-ee Champagne, legendary cabaret chanteuse Tammy Faye Starlite and drag sensation and the self-proclaimed "Miss Piggy of Drag" Ruby Powers. We'll be putting together some fabulous birthday ditties...with Musical Direction by Tracy Stark. Come and celebrate the birth of MargOH! at Pangea 178 Second Avenue: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/2514199
