After performing his new cabaret show on both coasts, Tom Judson brings THE Tom Judson SHOW to New Conservatory Theatre Center in San Francisco for a two-week run beginning May 3. The show has been retooled specifically for this engagement with a program of songs to celebrate spring. Utilizing the skills that landed him on Broadway, Tom croons at the piano in a vintage tuxedo and sings an eclectic selection of songs ranging from well-known standards to some surprising obscure gems- From Harold Arlen to Alan Cumming to Victor Herbert. He peppers the musical selections with anecdotes and stories about some of the celebrities he's crossed paths with during his career. Directed by Michael Schiralli, THE Tom Judson SHOW is an evening of song and story
Tom Judson has appeared onstage as a singer, musician, actor, and--in earlier days--as an object of lust and adoration as "Gus Mattox," GayVN Award-Winning adult film star. He has composed music for off-Broadway (Vampire Lesbians of Sodom), film (Whit Stillman's Metropolitan), television (Sesame Street), and has written songs for the likes of Ann Magnuson, Lisa Kron and others too numerous to mention. Occasionally he has been accompanist and second banana to drag chanteuse Varla Jean Merman. Tom appeared in the Broadway show Cabaret, the 42nd Street National Tour, and many off-Broadway and regional productions including the world premiere of Terrence McNally's Some Men. His one-man show Canned Ham has been touring the country for the past two years. Also an author and columnist, Tom recently published Laid Bare, a collection of his essays and magazine columns. His publications are available in print and eBook from amazon.com.
