Songstress and performer Kate Dawson (who starred in A Christmas Carol at MSG for three seasons, and starred opposite Lucie Arnaz as Eileen in Wonderful Town in Los Angeles) is bringing her hit one-woman show THE A**HOLE IN MY HEAD to The Duplex 1/30, at 7PM. THE A**HOLE IN MY HEAD enjoyed a sold out show at Birdland Jazz Club last year and a sold out run in 2009 at The Triad Theatre, and The Duplex will provide a more intimate setting for Dawson's comedic and entertaining musical exploration of that annoying inner voice we all combat on a daily basis.
The Duplex run leads up to the official release party for the CD recording of THE A**HOLE IN MY HEAD on January 30th, which will be available for purchase at all of
The Duplex performances (priced at $15). The recording was funded through RocketHub, a popular and innovative online crowd-funding site (for more information visit www.RocketHub.com).
Directed by veteran actor
Don Amendolia (33 Variations, Stepping Out, & My One And Only on Broadway, National Tour of Wicked as The Wizard), THE A**HOLE IN MY HEAD is
Kate Dawson's fresh and funny reinvention of cabaret as she transforms her worst enemy (herself) into a hilarious, unseen (but heard) other character. Featuring songs from a variety of musicals including City of Angels, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, The Light in the Piazza, Thoroughly Modern Millie and Wicked, in the show Kate and that "A**hole" in her head battle it out through song and witty banter. Don't miss the show that
David Noh of the Gay City News called "One of the TOP TEN best live performances of 2009!" and as
Andrew Martin from The Nightlife Exchange wrote, "There is no excuse possible for not catching the glory that is
Kate Dawson and this show."
THE A**HOLE IN MY HEAD will also feature
Lauren Cohn (The recent film Morning Glory, TV's Royal Pains and Suite Life of Zack & Cody) as "The A**hole," and musical direction by Broadway musical director
Doug Oberhamer (Swing! on Broadway). You can also view
Kate Dawson's uproarious Web-ASS-sodes online at www.youtube.com/user/kdawson8.
THE A**HOLE IN MY HEAD will be performed Sunday January 30th at 7pm at
The Duplex (61 Christopher Street at 7th Avenue). There is a $10 cover plus a two drink minimum, and tickets can be reserved by phone at 212-255-5438 or online at www.TheDuplex.com.
