This weekend, May 1-4, Upright Cabaret, the wildly popular Los Angeles theatrical showcase features an eclectic mix of artists from stage, screen and recording, returns to Joe's Pub in Manhattan to present a trio of shows entitled "Upright Cabaret takes Manhattan" featuring some of the best talent working in New York City.

This new generation cabaret currently on MTV News and next week in OK! Magazine, and T.V. Guide, has been refining the cabaret milieu for a younger, more hip audience.

All three shows will be directed by Upright Cabaret Artistic Director Billy Porter and presented by Chris Isaacson and Shane Scheel with Music Direction by Chris Bratten.
