An Evening with Dr. Faith at DON'T TELL MAMA

"7 1/2 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE MISTRESSES" a hilarious, touching one-woman show, written and performed by Lisa Faith Phillips returns to 7dtm RESV: 212-505-7227) for three performances, on Wednesdays, November 5th at 6:00 pm and 12th & 19th at 8:30 pm. The show explores our quest for romance, love and security. Using the format of a self-help lecture by Dr. Faith, Phillips takes us through the entertaining habits, using witty original songs, comic graphs and charts, maracas and a riding crop to punctuate her outrageously funny observations. Original music and musical direction are by Ellen Mandel. There is a $15 cover, 2-drink minimum.

Drawing on her colorful experiences, including working as a stripper to pay her way through graduate school at the London School of Economics, and her background in stand-up comedy and music, Lisa Faith Phillips weaves humor and songs -including the original crowd-pleasing "The Fellatio Tango" - into a clever, thought-provoking and ultimately touching show. Part comedy, part cabaret, part one-woman theater piece, it all adds up to an evening of sophisticated, fun entertainment.

The performance features original songs by Phillips and Mandel from the winning anthem "How to Be a Bad Girl" to the hilarious "Help Me Dr. Faith" and "She Can Not Get Enough" plus Ellenęs touching ballad "Wasnęt Such a Big Affair" and her bring-down-the-house blues "Smile When You Say Good-bye". Witty reinterpretations of American standards such as a sing-along of "Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend" by Jule Styne and a clever twist on Porteręs "Everytime We Say Good-bye" top off the evening.
