Rigano Songbook Returns To Don't Tell Mama With The Naughtiest Show In Town Image

David Rigano and Paul Rigano are returning to Don't Tell Mama with "I Ought to Behave" and EVEN MORE Naughty Songs, the third installment of their "I Ought to Behave" series celebrating smut, spewing filth, and warming hearts on 11/1, 11/15, 11/29, and 12/6. The evening will include dirty ditties ranging as far back as the 1930s to brand new Rigano Songbook originals.

They will be joined by special guest singers Amanda Nicholas (Wild Women of Planet Wongo, The 5th Annual Ides of March Extravaganza) on November 1 and Alison Nusbaum (Hairspray, Pippin) on November 15. More special guest singers to be announced soon!

The Brothers Rigano have been trotting out the naughtiest songs they can write or find at Don't Tell Mama since 2013, delighting and titillating audiences in a show the Times Square Chronicle has called "inappropriately hilarious." This new edition will be the filthiest yet!

Tickets are $15 in advance (naughty18.brownpapertickets.com) or $20 at the door, plus a two drink minimum, cash only. Performances 11/1, 11/15, 11/29, and 12/6, all at 9:30pm. Doors open at 9pm.
