Selene Luna Performs at the The Laurie Beechman Theatre, 9/11
Diminutive burlesque star & comic dynamo Selene Luna performs her show, Selene Luna: DON'T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF, on Saturday, September 11 at 8:00 PM at the Laurie Beechman Theatre (inside the West Bank Cafe), 407 West 42nd Street at Ninth Avenue. Tickets are $15 advance/$20 at the door (if available). There is a $15 food/drink minimum, with a full dinner menu and full bar available. Tickets may be purchased online at www.SpinCycleNYC.com or by calling 212-352-3101.
At 3'10", Selene Luna is a small package with a big presence; she has carved a niche for herself and continues to break the mold for little people in entertainment. Comedienne, co-star of Margaret Cho's The Cho Show on Vh1 and recurring character in David Faustino's Sony Crackle web series Star-ving, Luna pushes the envelop through her character-driven comedy. Luna has built a career performing in cabaret, burlesque and sketch comedy with the likes of Roseanne Barr, Jackie Beat and Dita Von Teese, as well as several one-woman shows, most recent Born to Be Alive produced by the Lily Tomlin/Jane Wagner Cultural Arts Center. Miss Luna won critical acclaim for her featured performances in Margaret Cho's Off-Broadway variety show, The Sensuous Woman.
The New York Times has called Miss Luna, "A polished spitfire", and in 2009, she was nominated for MTV LOGO's NewNowNext: Brink of Fame: Comic Award for her work on The Cho Show. Luna can be seen in Lionsgate's 2009 release My Bloody Valentine 3D. Her most recent New York appearances were in the sold-out run of the off-off Broadway play Whatever Happened to Busty Jane. While in New York she will also make an appearance at Bergdorf Goodman as part of Fashion's Night Out. Selene Luna has carved a niche for herself and continues to break the stereotypes of little people in entertainment. She is a comedic actress with sex appeal and leading lady flair. An up and coming presence in Hollywood, Luna continues to bring her magnetic appeal to broader audiences. Her website is at www.selenaluna.com.
