Last night, a sold-out crowd enjoyed the kick off performance of There Is Nothing Like A Dame: Marti Gould Cummings Live in Concert at The Duplex in New York City. Marti Gould Cummings is known for producing and hosting concerts with Broadway's top performers took to the stage last night for his very first solo concert.

Former 'Saturday Night Live' cast member and writer Colin Quinn returned to the New York City scene anddebuts his new one-man show 'Long Story Short' directed by Jerry Seinfeld. The show played a limited engagement at Bleecker Street Theatre (located at 45 Bleecker Street between Bowery and Lafayette Street) for eight weeks only with performances ending Sunday, August 15th.

Cumming's impish charm is undiminished. The show was 15 minutes shorter, with 12 songs instead of 15. The best anecdotes are still in, like Ann Miller's obscene comment about Eyes Wide Shut, and there are a few new ones, like about his 45th birthday tupperware party and the hilarious saga of his participation in Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade 2009, but the banter is still fresh and spontaneous and typically Cumming-esque. 7 songs remain from the CD I Bought a Blue Car Today and a couple of new songs have been added. I especially loved the medley of Bacharach and Sondheim - 'I Still Have That Other Girl'/'Losing My Mind' that do work beautifully together, the original song 'I Want To See You' - take away all that plastic surgery! - written by Cumming and Lance Horne, and Horne's satirical tune about what it means to be 'American'. Cumming with a G, not Cummings with an S - is as precious as ever. I overheard someone say 'I just want to take him home with me!' I can just imagine how his deliciously quick-witted brain would react to that comment! He's one unique individual that makes a show forever fascinating, always gutsy and real and totally entertaining!
