Amy Spanger to Perform Live at Birdland, 3/16
On March 16th at 7 pm, Amy Spanger brings her solo show to Birdland.
In collaboration with her partners, musical whiz-kid Kris Kukul, and husband/ director Brian Shepard, Amy is proud to present AMY SPANGER - LIVE AT BIRDLAND! with special guest Elizabeth Stanley, an evening of pop, music theater, rock, country, R&B and candid storytelling. The show will feature some of the music that put her on the map, including "Don't Stop Believing" from Rock of Ages, "Always True To You Darling In My Fashion" from Kiss Me Kate, and "Come To Your Senses" from tick, tick...
BOOM! She'll also share some glamorous and not-as-glamorous tales as she reflects on the places she's lived and people she's lived with along the great white way, including a budding schizophrenic, a pair of cocaine enthusiasts, and a couple of husbands.
Ever since her break out performance as Lois/Bianca in Broadway's Tony Award-winning Kiss Me Kate, Amy has been cheered by audiences and critics alike for her star turns in shows like tick, tick...BOOM!, The Wedding Singer, Urinetown, Elf, Rock of Ages, and Chicago. She's guest starred on Royal Pains, Ed, Law and Order: SVU, Six Feet Under, and Bored To Death. She also played the depraved drug fiend Sally in Showtime's original movie musical Reefer Madness, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and went on to become a cult classic. She just wrapped filming the indie thriller No Beast So Fierce, starring opposite Dylan Baker.
