DOZEN DIVAS Opens at The Metropolitan Room 5/19

In the smash Off-Broadway hit Spamilton, Dorothy Bishop ruthlessly impersonates divas from Liza Minnelli to Barbra Streisand, with Bernadette Peters and Patti LuPone along the way.

But Spamilton hardly scratches the surface of Dorothy's talent for mimicry. In her fast-paced one-woman show "The Dozen Divas," she does Liza and Barbra... and Stevie and Adele and Cher... and, well, too many others to mention!

Dorothy is primed to dazzle you on Friday, May 19 at 9:30 at the Metropolitan Room as she launches into her third year of "The Dozen Divas," featuring her classic impersonations as well as a brand-new diva or two.

"The Dozen Divas" has already been nominated for two Broadway World Awards and two Mac Awards for best musical comedy show. In between stints with Spamilton, Dorothy squeezed in a triumphant Mexican tour of "Divas" during which she headlined at the beautiful Red Room in Puerto Vallarta.

She was spotted in "The Dozen Divas" by the music director of Spamilton, Broadway conductor Fred Barton.

He was bowled over: "Dorothy's innate sunny sense of humor and goodheartedness transcends all - but her true secret weapon lies in the sky-high quality and range of her own native, superlative singing."

"Fred asked me then and there if I thought I could step into Spamilton that weekend. Just three days later I was on stage belting out Liza's 11 o'clock number. "And I've lost count how many times I've played 'The Broadway Divas' in that show since then!"

Spamilton is nominated for an Outer Critics award for Outstanding New Musical 2017. The show transfers officially to Off Broadway's 47th Street Theatre in June.

**Dorothy is accompanied by her mini-Chihuahua, Luther, a rescue from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, and a singer as well.
