Zachary Piser, MiMi Scardulla to Headline Final 'MADAME'S SOIREE' of 2017

Cabaret patroness Madame Mathieu has selected Zachary Piser (Wicked), and MiMi Scardulla (Gigantic) as guests of honor at the November 9 edition of the Bistro Awards Critics' Pick Madame Mathieu's Soiree. It will be the final soiree of 2017, with 2018 dates announced at the event.

The Soiree will be held at The Duplex Cabaret Theater on November 9 at 9:30pm. Described by critic Gerry Geddes as "an Ed Sullivan Show for a new generation", this "variety show with an avant garde twist" is as unpredictable as the patroness herself. Each eclectic evening features a group of rising stars in stand-up, poetry, dance, songwriting, and performance art while the Broadway guests accept creative dares that arise from Mme. M's insane imagination. The evening concludes with a party in the outer bar, because the only thing more interesting that Madame's show is her audience.

Hosted by five-time MAC Award nominee Drew Fornarola (off-Broadway's STRAIGHT) and directed by Tyler Spicer, this edition of the soiree will also feature actor / writer Noam Ash (My Gay Roommate) making his standup comedy debut, songwriter Tina deVaron, playwright Matt McGill, memoirist Tyler Spicer, and performance artist Elle Walker. Additional casting TBA. This is the 12th edition of the show, which has already featured nearly 150 individual artists and 30 Broadway guests.

The Duplex Cabaret Theatre is located at 61 Christopher Street. Tickets are $10 online and $15 at the door. There is a two-drink minimum. For tickets, call 212-989-3015, or visit www.purplepass.com/#155391 or www.theduplex.com.
