Salty Brine to Debut New Cabaret Inspired by Fleetwood Mac's RUMOURS

Salty Brine announces the premiere of a new cabaret, Second Hand News, as the next installment in his series, Salty Brine's Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret. Salty Brine's Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret, which performs on Wednesdays as part of Brine's residency at The Red Room (85 E. 4th St.), explores a different iconic album each month in a live cabaret setting. Second Hand News, inspired by Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, will run on May 6, 13, 20 and 27 with doors opening at 7:30pm and shows beginning at 8:00pm.

Have you heard? Salty Brine divulges dish, succumbs to scandal, and gives good gossip in the latest installment of his Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret. Second Hand News transforms Fleetwood Mac's hit-filled, drug-fueled exposé, Rumours, into an evening of scintillating scuttlebutt where the truth is anybody's guess.

Second Hand News is directed by Preston Martin with dramaturgy by James Monaco and arrangements by Matthew Marsh. The show features lighting design by Michael McGee, sound design by AJ Surasky and costume design by nightlife personality One-Half Nelson.

Tickets are $10 and can be purchased online at www.thesaltiestbrine.com.

Shows every Wednesday night. A different album every month. This dazzling expedition into the heart of popular music, created and performed by cabaret artist Salty Brine, takes incredible albums and twists them in style and form until they are at once familiar and foreign, nostalgic and new. Imagining track lists as blueprints for evenings of musical mayhem, Salty brings you his Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret as part of a residency at downtown's swankiest speakeasy, The Red Room.

Past shows include Abbey Straße, a kabarett rendition of The Beatles' Abbey Road, and I've Been to Sea Before (Time Out New York Critics' Pick), a nautical odyssey inspired by Joni Mitchell's Blue.
