IF You LOVE TO LAUGH...
DISCLAIMER:
I have absolutely no financial, familial or social investment in the plays I am about to talk about.
Last night I went to a preview performance of MARTIN SHORT'S Broadway review & musical: "FAME BECOMES ME" and it is FANTASTIC!
Strictly speaking, it is not a one-man show as he is backed up by 2 guys & 3 gals who are absolutely phenomenal singing actors. One of them can also tapdance up a storm.
It's been a long time since a show had me laughing out loud over and over, but this one sure did.
This one-act show runs :105 min. WITHOUT INTERMISSION so plan your bladder needs accordingly...
You can see video clips online. Once the reviews come in tix will go quickly.
I also saw "BRIDGE & TUNNEL" written by & starring SARAH JONES whom I have absolutely no recolection of seeing or hearing about before her TONY AWARD WINNING DEBUT IN THIS; but she and her one-woman, one act show are also PHENOMENAL!! clap:
SEE HER NOW BEFORE THE SHOW FINALLY CLOSES AUGUST 13TH.
In 90 min. and by only changing a jacket or adding a scarf or pair of eyeglasses, she shape shifts intgo about 15 different characters, men and women, young & old, black, white, Latina, Russian Jew, Pakistani, etc. etc.
The humor is pure NYC immigrant observations.
American Express is running special prices on their Broadway website. Don't deprive yourselves to see this amazing actress/writer.
She did win A TONY AWARD for her performance.
Gotta plane to catch!
