Cole Escola: Downtown Darling

For his debut performance at 54 Below, downtown darling Cole Escola will show you what it looks like for a white trash girl-boy from the backwoods of Oregon to be drunk with power in a cabaret venue. Described as “punkish and puckish” by The New York Times and a “superurchin” by Time Out New York, kitten-sized singer/character actress Cole Escola tries to steal his own show as he performs comedic original songs like they’re old-timey showstoppers and old-timey showstoppers like they’re nobody’s business. From racist Irving Berlin toe-tappers to angsty Taylor Swift tearjerkers, Cole Escola at 54 Below will provide something for everyone, and then take it away from you.
