NOW PLAYING: Italian Bred!
Acclaimed writer/performer CANDICE GUARDINO premieres the Outrageous ITALIAN BRED Off-Broadway! With this 80 minute one-woman show, Candice slips in and out of characters as she cooks up a full meal of growing up Italian on Staten Island. Having written down everything her loving and outspoken grandmother ever uttered, she combinesthis unfiltered wisdom, along with her family’s VERY Italian and definitive personalities and a generous helping of her own experiences. This hilarious and heartwarming show includes unique stories and memories from her childhood…with a liberal dash of live music! PLUS, at every performance, Candice will enlist a different Celebrity Guest Star to join in the storytelling!
ITALIAN BRED also includes a live three-piece band under the musical supervision of DAVID DABBON (Broadway-Sondheim On Sondheim (Grammy Nominee), Audra McDonald at Carnegie Hall) and direction by DONNA DRAKE (Broadway-A Chorus Line, Sophisticated Ladies; Emmy nomination, 4 Drama Desk Nominations and a Theatre World Award).

NOW PLAYING: Addicted to Show Business
Written and performed by 3 Time Emmy Award winner Dave Konig, with direction and musical score by Ian Finkel, ‘Addicted to Show Business’ is a one man comedic tour de force about the one addiction there’s no 12 Step program for!
In this uplifting and hilarious show, Konig cons his way into a starring role in a Broadway musical (even though he can’t sing or dance), he grts hired – and fired – as a national spokesman for the Catholic Church (even though he’s Jewish), Adam Sandler pushes him on stage, Carol Burnett falls in -and out- of love with him, and someone in the audience gets decapitated (really).

NOW Playing: Cougar The Musical (EXTENDED thru June 2nd!)
Cougar the Musical
Written by Donna Moore
Directed by Lynne Taylor-Corbett
Cougar The Musical by Donna Moore, unleashes three divine but disillusioned women who develop a taste for hot, young men. They let their inner cougar roar and purr, finding self-love and empowerment in the process. The sexy, ferocious cast of three fabulous-over-forty women and one multi-talented boy toy sing and dance their way through a satiating range of original songs, from grinding blues, to doo-wop, to pop to “Julio,” a romantic ballad, sung to a vibrator. Hilarious, soulful and heartwarming, Cougar the Musical is a madcap ride from Cougar Bar to nail salon to boudoir and back as the women learn to say “yes” to getting older, “yes” to trust and friendship and “yes” to proving that love is ageless.
Running Time: 90 Minutes, with no intermission
Audience: Appropriate for 12+ (Some adult language). Children under age 4 are not permitted in the theater.
