Second the beloved Downtown renegade Penny Arcade stages her new mixed media performance, "Notes from the Underground," airing it on Friday October 30, also at 8pm.

Further dates for the series, staged in Pangea's intimate showroom before a ghost audience, will be announced soon. Recently Pangea resumed indoor dining at 25% capacity and will continue its popular outdoor café featuring occasional unannounced performers, for a suitable time as weather permits. In "Tammy Faye Starlite: Standing By" the far-right Southern evangelical country singer, who shares a name with Starlite (but little else), returns to New York for a pep rally in which she sings the songs of Patti Smith, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, Pete Townsend, Jim Morrison. Ever modest, she includes several of her own inspirational tunes in this remarkable new show featuring her frequent musicianaries, Keith Hartel on bass and Richard Feridun on guitars. Her director is Michael Schiralli.Videos
