Mack & Poppy Return to Los Angeles with THE PATRIOT ACT, 4/25-26
Mack & Poppy are set to make their long-awaited return to Los Angeles with their new show The Patriot Act on Friday, April 25 and Saturday, April 26. The curtain will rise at 9pm for both shows at Cavern Club Celebrity Theatre inside Casita Del Campo Restaurant in Silver Lake. In this star-spangled romp, Mack and Poppy present a musical tribute to the greatest country in the world (the USA, of course) as a send-off to their beloved cabana boy Fernando, just prior to his imminent deportation. This dynamic duo of comedy and song will take their audiences on a road trip from sea to shining sea, across the purple mountains' majesty, across the fruity plains. Mack & Poppy will be accompanied by music director Jack Cheddar at the piano.
Mack & Poppy are the creation of Christopher Michael Graham and Tod Macofsky. Crooner Mack Diamond (Macofsky) began his career as a child star, singing on street corners with his two older brothers, Shlomo and Moishe. Later, Mack suffered a decade of depression and alcoholism in Las Vegas, where he spent eight years performing his solo show, A Yiddishe Mackie, at The Imperial Palace. He met the lovely Poppy Fields while she was in the chorus of Jubilee!, and the rest is showbiz history. Southern Belle Poppy Fields (Graham) escaped the narrow-minded confines of Possum Trot, Alabama, and traveled the world as a singer/dancer/actress, entertaining celebrities, businessmen, and heads-of-state. After a successful beauty pageant career, the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas called, where Poppy wed and divorced four husbands before finally meeting and marrying the "Sensation of the 24-hour Buffet," entertainer Mack Diamond.
The Patriot Act will play two performances only at the Cavern Club Celebrity Theatre inside Casita Del Campo Restaurant on Friday, April 25 and Saturday, April 26 at 9pm. Tickets are $20 in advance, and are available online at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/561022 or by phone at (800) 838-3006. Tickets are $25 at the door.
