Will Kelley's autobiographical cabaret show FOR THE RECORD returns to 54 Below with new and revised material, directed by Tony Award winner Faith Prince and Michael Kirk Lane.

Tony Award winner Lindsay Mendez will join forces with Faith Prince and Michael Kirk Lane at the 92NY Summer Cabaret Conference. Scheduled from June 22 to June 26, this event will feature a series of performances and workshops.

In the 3/12 show, a madcap exploration of life, time, space and music, featuring a collection of songs as varied and eccentric as he is, David Malinsky embraces his True Self, and keeps us laughing–and thinking–along the way!

David Malinsky will make his solo cabaret debut with I WANT THE WORLD at Don’t Tell Mama in New York City. The one-night performance features songs by Stephen Sondheim and other composers. Musical direction is by Yasuhiko Fukuoka.
