Molly Pope Returns to the Duplex with Kenny Mellman, 10/22 & 11/5

"Molly Pope, Okay?" is an intimate evening of favorite songs with the critically-acclaimed cabaret chanteuse at that beloved West Village institution, The Duplex. The downtown diva covers all the bases from Mozart to Madonna, branding all with her signature stamp of neo-retro verve. Playing it fast and loose, she beguiles the audience in an evening that brings to mind the heyday of mid-century New York City cabaret, spiked with a post-modern twist. Named a "Village Voice Best of NYC 2011" for Best Singer to Turn Life Into a Cabaret, she is joined on piano by Obie winner/Tony Award-nominee Kenny Mellman. Okay?
