ANT & DEEJ. Two stars: one ANTagonizing, the other one a diva with a capital DEEJ. Together, they make up the newest comic duo who hate each other to the point of love (and maybe even lust?) Through song, dance, and shenanigan, Ant and Deej bring us back to vaudeville, burlesque, and every co-star fight that follows.

Featuring hit songs from musicals old and new, as well as a drag performance by New England's Li Moncello, come on into the dressing room and follow our duo through a throwback comedy cabaret. Who will win Maureen's heart? And who's Maureen? Find out with ANT AND DEEJ!

Written and performed by Anthony Chavers and Deidre Lynn Thompson, with direction by Katrina Wischusen, the show will feature Broadway duets of all kinds from musicals like Rent, Chicago, and the hit television show, SMASH. Along with solos and hilarious banter, Ant & Deej will take the audience on a comedic journey through the ups and downs of being a vaudeville duo. The show will be accompanied by Tommy Folderauer (Niagara the Musical) and will feature drag star Li Moncello. Tickets will be sold for $15 with a $25 food and beverage minimum to be met by each guest in attendance.
