JOHN KELLY
Down To You: John Kelly Sings Joni Mitchell is a concert version of John Kelly’s acclaimed tribute to the music of Joni Mitchell. This ‘drag free’ version focuses on songs from the various stages of Mitchell’s extensive songwriting career. Kelly sings in his signature 3 octave voice, plays her unique guitar open tunings and also plays the dulcimer Joni gave him upon first witnessing his performance. Music Direction and piano by Zecca Esquibel.

CLEO BERLIN
The audacious Filipina drag diva Cleo Berlin presents her one-woman variety show, Cleo Berlin: LIVE! Join Ms. Berlin and her assistant Becky as they weave sketch comedy, live music, and multi-media madness! A zany and fast-paced show that guarantees to test the boundaries set by the lack of Asian-American visibility. Berlin is a multi-talented drag performer from Brooklyn who performs around the city at galas, local pubs, and street corners. Highlights include Bushwig 2018, HOT! Festival, and TWEED's Sundays at Seven Performance Series at Pangea. A gal for any occasion.
