Toby
Blackwell Is "Bitter" at THE DUPLEX
Toby
Blackwell returns to the New York cabaret stage with a brand - new
show, "BITTER," at THE DUPLEX CABARET THEATRE (61 Christopher Street,
NYC - 1-212-255-5438 - http://www.theduplex.com/)
on Fridays, October 3rd, 10th, 17th, and 24th at 7:00 pm. D. Jay Bradley
music directs and Maria Gentile directs this multi-media presentation,
which completes a trilogy begun with Toby's previous Duplex cabaret
outings, "Home" and "One Moment, Please." There will be a $10 music
charge and a 2-drink minimum.
Mr. Blackwell
has been a gay Naval officer, a theme park singer, and a wannabe "Survivor"
contestant. In this new show, Toby's unique brand of humor shines
through as he discusses these and many other detours in his life,
through video, stories and song. From stories of how living with his
crazy Filipino mother has prepared him for reality TV to his humorous
look at the reality of "Don't ask, don't tell," Toby will engage audiences
while managing to somehow inject some serious messages.
And of course,
Miss Whitney Houston will make her presence known, as she did so memorably
singing "How Much Is Blow?" during "One Moment, Please." For "Bitter,"
Miss Houston will be joined on stage by some of her embattled diva
sisters, performing more of Toby's well-known "dishy parodies."
Toby has
also gained a following for his vocal abilities. Audiences have literally
shouted compliments at him in the middle of his shows. His varied
repertoire, everything from & Sting to Cy Coleman, contains something
for everyone and always leaves the audience wondering what will come
next. He inspires and entertains the room with his expert delivery
and interpretation of every song.
