Lisa
Faith Phillips Returns to DILLON'S in May
"7
1/2 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE MISTRESSES" returns to DILLON'S (245
West 54th Street, NYC - 212-307-9797 - http://www.dillonslounge.com/
) in May, with performances scheduled for Fridays, May 7th, 14th &
21st at 8:30 pm. The show, written and performed by Lisa Faith Phillips.
hilariously explores our quest for romance, love and security. Original
music and musical direction is by Ellen Mandel. There is a $15 cover,
$10 food/drink minimum. $5
discount off the cover for members of CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE.
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. 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 Ellen's touching ballad "Wasn't 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 Porter's "Everytime We Say Good-bye" top off the evening.
