A MURRAY LITTLE CHRISTMAS to Play LPR, 12/19
By: Tyler Peterson Dec. 08, 2015
Comedian and larger-than-life personality MURRAY HILL (aka Mr. Showbiz) gives the much needed gift of holiday cheer and entertainment to New York City with his legendary Yuletide tradition: A MURRAY LITTLE CHRISTMAS at LPR, Saturday, December 19 at 7pm. Expect an evening of hilarious and wacky skits with the cast, Hot Toddy burlesque, a sleigh full of cheesy holiday songs, plenty of nuts, fruits and tree trimming.
Everyone is invited as Murray re-creates one of his infamous holiday cocktail parties, live on stage. The show will be a cozy, chestnut warming, homey affair direct from his bachelor pad living room (one large enough to accommodate 4 merry musicians, 3 strutting Santa showgirls, 2 swinging sisters, and 1 showbiz legend named Murray Hill). Murray also promises several tender moments when he sings his signature "Have Yourself A Murray Little Christmas" (tissues and ear plugs will be available to the audience upon request). A Murray Little Christmas is a cocktail-style variety show packed with silver bells and holiday hi-balls. It's the liveliest Christmas cocktail party of the season and everyone is guaranteed to have a gay old time!
Special guests:
BRIDGET EVERETT (superstar fearless singer), DIRTY MARTINI (neo-burlesque legend), CARMINE C. COVELLI (a.k.a. SEBASTIAN THE ELF, drummer in The Julie Ruin), WAU-WAU SISTERS (bawdy acrobatic singing country duo), SANTA, and THE MURRAYETTES (Charlene Lanzel, Boo Boo Darlin, Dandy Dillinger). Backed Murray's new swinging 4-piece band THE 12 STEPS: (Michael Garin-Piano, Kenball Zwerin-Bass, Michael Hashim-Saxaphone, and featuring Mr. Ronnie Magri on drums).
This non-returnable gift of holiday entertainment captures the joy and jubilation, the Murray-ment and magnificence of the holiday season (all denominations, orientations and sexual proclivities will be celebrated). Have Yourself a Murray Little Christmas now, you'll be glad you did.
