"It's Twoo, it's twoo!" KAHN ARTIST: Madeline And Me returns to Don't Tell Mama on Thursday January 18, 2024 at 7pm. Tickets here.
Additional dates Wednesday Feb. 21 and Sunday March 3, both at 7pm at Don't Tell Mama.
Eden Casteel discovered Tony Award-winner Madeline Kahn through a beer commercial (it was Michelob). From that moment, she wanted to be just like Kahn: "Wealthy, glamorous, with an unbelievable singing voice." (Two out of three ain't bad!)
You know Kahn from her movies with Mel Brooks (Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, History Of The World Part 1) her stage work (Two By Two, On The Twentieth Century, The Sisters Rosensweig) and her TV appearances (Saturday Night Live, Oh Madeline!) You know Casteel -- oh, you probably don't. She lives and works in Rhode Island, after all. But she has a livestream show on YouTube and she sings and plays piano nationwide! And Casteel's singing and comedy has always been inspired by Kahn, a true artist.
KAHN ARTIST: Madeline And Me celebrates the trials and triumphs of Kahn and Casteel. With John M. Cook, piano. Directed by Faith Prince, co-written with Rod Ferguson, Music Direction by Jim Rice and Bobby Peaco.
Songs by Randy Newman, Clarence "Frogman" Henry, Zina Goldrich and Marcy Heisler, Stephen Sondheim, Mel Brooks, Jason Robert Brown, Michael Cohen, Rodgers and Hammerstein, and more. Notable: Also included is a special "medley" of Kahn's most memorable movie lines and moments ("Flames! On the side of my face!" . . "In our circles, in our circles. . . ")
Broadway World's Analisa Bell reviewed Kahn Artist in 2023: "Casteel made it her mission to be both funny AND have a brilliant voice (mission accomplished)! . . . . this reviewer found it was the moments when Casteel wasn’t exemplifying her vocal abilities but showing us pieces of her heart that really made the show." Read the whole review here.
KAHN ARTIST: Madeline And Me returns to Don't Tell Mama, 343 W. 46th St. NYC, on February 21 and March 3, both at 7pm. Learn more about the show here!
Eden Casteel has a big voice and a big heart, and both were on display at Don’t Tell Mama on Tuesday night for “Kahn Artist: Madeline and Me.” Having premiered the show at The Arctic Playhouse and Cabaret in Rhode Island in July of 2022, Casteel presented the third of four NYC performances to a small but very appreciative crowd.
