WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Karen Finley, the most controversial woman in performance today, follows up her acclaimed Off-Broadway engagement and subsequent world tour of Shut Up and Love Me with the World Premiere of her latest work, Make Love. Workshopped in San Diego, Austin, Texas and at Joe's Pub in New York, this cabaret-driven, lounge-style act co-stars drag performer and artist Chris Tanner, pianist Lance Cruce, and a rotating roster of Liza Minnelli impersonators. In this show, Finley channels Liza Minnelli in song, dance glamour and glitter. Liza's tragicomic life is the backdrop as one New Yorker grasps to make sense of the current chaos of our nation.
The Oct 12 performance -- Columbus Day Weekend -- is at 9:30pm.
