Hello Beautiful People!
I’m so, so, so excited to share with you this particular coming soon piece, as it’s also myl my latest producing venture.
BLACKOUT at Bay Street will be on August 8th, 9th, 22nd, and 23rd, and our first line up is none other than The Skivvies!
About The Skivvies:
The Skivvies are Lauren Molina and Nick Cearley, award-winning NYC singer/actor/musicians performing stripped down arrangements of eclectic covers and eccentric originals. Not only is the music stripped down – cello, ukulele, glockenspiel, melodica – but the Skivvies literally strip down to their underwear to perform. The Wall Street Journal calls them “smart, sophisticated…ingenious,” and Out Magazine says, “The Skivvies have managed to carve out a niche that we never knew needed to exist: part Weird Al- parody and part sexy burlesque…and unusual explosion of satire and sultry.”
Molina (Broadway’s Rock of Ages, Sweeney Todd, Mary Zimmerman’s Candide – Helen Hayes Award, Marry Me A Little) and Cearley (Broadway First National All Shook Up and the lauded one-man show …And Then I Wrote a Song About It- NJ Star Ledger Award for Best Leading Actor in a Musical) became YouTube sensations with their Skivvies covers of artists like Robyn, Carole King and Rihanna. The videos led to live shows, and now this “musically thrilling”, undie-rock, comedy-pop duo continues to perform to sold-out audiences in New York and beyond. Previous venues include their residency at 54 Below, The Highline Ballroom, Roseland Ballroom, Joe’s Pub, The Cutting Room, Rockwell Table & Stage in Los Angeles, Williamstown Theatre Festival, Pittsburgh’s City Theatre, and The Bucks County Playhouse in New Hope, PA.
The Skivvies have performed at events such as Broadway Bares (raising money for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS), A Tribute to Angela Lansbury with Tyne Daly and Christine Ebersole, Broadway for Obama, Human Rights Campaign benefit, Theatre C. They have made appearances on NBC, and filmed a pilot for the A&E network. In addition, they often perform at corporate events, weddings, and birthday parties.
They also have a single, “Hardbody Hoedown” and music video directed by Augusten Burroughs, bestselling author of Running With Scissors.
Most recently, Nick and Lauren were cast as Brad and Janet in The Rocky Horror Show at Bucks County Playhouse, directed by Hunter Foster
