On Sunday April 19, actress/singer Alexandra Billings brought her new show I'm Still Here...Still! to Sterling's Upstairs at the Federal to overwhelming success. It was a packed house of adoring friends and fans who have come to love Billings for what she brings to the stage -passion, a passion for performing, and most importantly, a passion for her audience. She genuinely cares about everyone, and on top of that, she is screamingly funny. When I first reviewed her cabaret six years ago, I stated:

'Grease' e senza dubbio uno degli spettacoli piu amati dagli italiani. Ogni anno, o giu di li, salta fuori una grossa produzione di questo musical e almeno un centinaio di produzioni piccole. E ogni volta la gente e estasiata all'idea di risentire per la millesima volta 'Summer nights' o 'You're the one that I want'. Sara che come spettacolo non mi e mai piaciuto, e se qualche volta riesco a sopportare il film e solo grazie a uno straordinario John Travolta (o di un formidabile Flavio Bucci?), ma non ho mai capito le ragioni di questo amore viscerale.
