Tony Braithwaite And Jennifer Childs Create And Star In An All-New Comedy Cabaret At Act II Playhouse

Philly's funniest friends, Artistic Director at Act II Playhouse, Tony Braithwaite, and Producing Artistic Director at 1812 Productions, Jennifer Childs, have created and are sharing the spotlight in a new comedy cabaret, Together Again For the First Time. Music Direction and piano accompaniment are by Owen Robbins. Reflecting the pace and style of classic comedy duo Mike Nichols and Elaine May, Braithwaite and Childs merge their wit and musical chops in a high-energy performance of songs, sketches and hilarious asides.

Together Again runs for 20 performances at the intimate Act II Playhouse in Ambler, PA with Previews starting January 14, Opening Night January 17, and a full run through February 2. Tickets start at $30 and are available online at act2.org, or by calling the Act II Box Office at 215.654.0200.

Braithwaite and Childs are known to audiences as a comedic dynamic duo and new work is highly anticipated. Past projects include, A Few of Our Favorite Things, and Let's Pretend We're Famous.

"Working with Jen Childs is one of my favorite things to do - ever,'' says Braithwaite, "we never stop laughing!" He added, "We both wanted to bring the vaudeville nature and pure fun of the 60's and 70's variety TV shows to the stage, and we want people to come ready to laugh with abandon."
