Kressley & Cumming to Join 'Celebrity Autobiography'

By:

"Celebrity Autobiography: In Their Own Words," the acclaimed, long-running L.A-based comedy sensation has taken New York by storm and has extended its run (Mondays at 7:30PM) through March 24 at The Triad Theater (158 West 72nd Street).  Produced by Angelo Fraboni, Eugene Pack, Dayle Reyfel and Peter Martin, the show continues to draw top talent to its rotating cast and bold -faced names to its sold-out audiences.

"Celebrity Autobiography: In Their Own Words" features a line up of revolving performers who will interpret the actual words and stories written by the famous and the infamous, in both solo and ensemble "chamber" pieces.

Stars of past and future "Celebrity Autobiography" performances include: Fred Armisen, Joy Behar, Matthew Broderick, Bobby Cannavale, Alan Cumming (March 24), Rachel Dratch, Cheyenne Jackson, Kristen Johnston, Carson Kressley (March 17), Richard Kind, Michael McKean, Donna Murphy, Eugene Pack, Jack Plotnick, Dayle Reyfel, Seth Rudetsky, Claudia Shear, Sherri Shepherd, Jason Sudeikis, Kristen Wiig and Karen Ziemba

Some of the "authors" that are featured include Ivana Trump, Vanna White, Mr. T, Star Jones, Kenny Loggins, Tommy Lee, Sylvester Stallone, 'N Sync, Zsa Zsa Gabor, David Cassidy, Neil Sedaka, Britney Spears, Madonna, Burt Reynolds and Loni Anderson, as well as the infamous memoirs of Elizabeth Taylor, Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, which are edited together to create a Rashomon-esque playlet in the participants' own words.

"Celebrity Autobiography", created by Emmy nominated writer and performer Eugene Pack and co-produced/developed with Dayle Reyfel, has been a monthly event in Los Angeles that attracts celebrities as guest performers and audience members.

A portion of the proceeds of "Celebrity Autobiography" will benefit The Actors' Fund, a nationwide human services organization that helps all professionals – both performers and those behind the scenes - in performing arts and entertainment. Please visit The Actors' Fund website at www.actorsfund.org.

Monday evenings (7:30) through March 24th-- Tickets for "Celebrity Autobiography" are scaled at $35.00 - $45.00 (plus a 2 drink minimum). Tickets are available in advance through Smartix by phone at 212-868-4444 or online at www.SmartTix.com.
