Heavily influenced by Max Ophül's LOLA MONTES, Fellini's 8 1/2 and the entire John Waters canon, THE LIFE + DEATH OF KENYON PHILLIPS is a hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking examination of identity, responsibility and truth Kenyon says his inspiration for the project came from a desire “to take the traditional one-man show idea of 'here's my life story,' and throw a grenade in it."
THE LIFE + DEATH OF KENYON PHILLIPS is a rock opera that uses a cabaret-variety show format to explore the past, present and future of downtown performance artist Kenyon Phillips. In addition to Kenyon and his all-girl backing band, The Ladies In Waiting, the cast includes cultural critic and TV personality Michael Musto, Tony winner Cady Huffman, Tony nominee Gabriel Barre, and a host of aerialists, burlesquers, and other shining stars from the NYC circus underground. After two sold-out engagements at Joe's Pub in 2014, THE LIFE + DEATH OF KENYON PHILLIPS moves to The Box for a strictly limited run that promises more songs, more thrills, and the occasional chill.
4 PERFORMANCES ONLY
PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE:
FRIDAY @ 7:30 PM
