New York City
Henry Alford (of VH-1’s “Rock of Ages”) hosts this unusual show. Big Kiss: New York’s Funniest Unknown Actors Tell Their Most Humiliating Audition Stories is an evening of true comic monologues by actors who have endured particularly unusual auditions:
-An actress asked to dress up as a koala bear and copulate with an actor she finds attractive only when he is in the bear costume.
-A woman hired to pose with her own poop at a Japanese artist’s very avante-garde exhibition.
-An actor encouraged by an experimental director to descend from human form to that of a cockfighting chicken.
-A young actress who horrified a room full of mothers at a Disney audition by performing her own sexy interpretation of Paula Abdul’s “Cold Hearted Snake.”
-Plus hilarious horror stories about auditioning for MFA programs, TV commercials, musicals, and a gay phone sex line.
Final performance: May 19, 2024
