MODEST MALE EXPOSURE 2: I DREAM OF GENES premieres at NYC's Pangea on November 8, with a second showing at Stonewall Inn on November 27. Directed by Jed Ryan, this sequel continues the comedic exploration of father-son dynamics.
This is not just a “run-of-the-mill” tribute show. For Dver knew Newley personally, and was able to share intimate, poignant stories of her and her late husband’s friendship with the British singer-songwriter.
As it says on his promotional material, Joe Fox traveled to Maine in 2009 where he made a documentary on same sex marriage. While scenes from the documentary play during the performance, it is Fox’s story that is the feature of this fascinating show, which is less cabaret and more of a theatrical piece with songs.
Entering with a rousing mash-up of Michael John LaChiusa’s “Welcome to my Party” and “I Love Being Here with You” by Peggy Lee and Bill Schluger, Bornstein set the tone with a hilarious and touching homage to her father, who sadly passed away during the pandemic. The show is a touching homage to a well-loved father.
On Friday June 28, the audience at Don’t Tell Mama was taken on a journey of theatrical storytelling by singer and actress Shannon Daley. This highly original, intriguing piece of theater (which worked surprisingly well in a cabaret space), was well worth another run. This reviewer hopes Daley and her formidable team will bring it back soon!
Overall, this is a well-paced, charming show with both heartwarming and heartbreaking moments, and a whole lot of love for the Carpenters.
