MILES PHILLIPS RETURNS TO REPRISE TWO ACCLAIMED SHOWS
Miles Phillips is scheduled to bring two of his most popular and acclaimed
shows, SPECIFIC OVERTURES and THE UNREST INSIDE ME, back to THE METROPOLITAN
ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440 -

) each for one night only, this July. On Saturday July 7th at 8:00
pm he will present SPECIFIC OVERTURES and THE UNREST INSIDE ME will
be performed on Saturday, July 14th at 10:30 pm. Miles is teamed again
with his longtime Musical Director, 2007 MAC Award winning composer,
Jason Wynn.
SPECIFIC OVERTURES captured the hearts of New York
audiences and critics alike. The show is an exploration of life's
"stepping off points" Ô moments of trust and reaching out that are
integral to the human experiences of friendship, love and faith.
The song list features an impressive range of material Ô from show
tunes and standards to pop and rock. 2007 MAC Male Debut winner
Rob Langeder joins Miles in this show for a soaring duet.
THE UNREST INSIDE ME grew from Miles' reflections
on his "Life Upon The Wicked Stage" and the result is a joyous celebration
of the journeys of the actor and the formidable challenges of balancing
Art, Travel, Showbiz and Love. The song list is eclectic, and includes
his critically acclaimed original song "Art and Love."
Phillips is a multiple award-winning actor, director,
nightclub vocalist and recording artist and has appeared in theaters
and nightclubs from Honolulu to London. He has countless leading
New York and regional theatre roles, numerous film and television
appearances, a popular solo album and over a dozen original and
studio cast recordings to his credit, including his current critically
acclaimed turn as Robert in a new cast recording of COMPANY.
As a nightclub vocalist, Miles has been honored with
the prestigious MAC Hanson Award and named a finalist in the category
of Outstanding Cabaret Male Vocalist at the Nightlife Awards in
2004 (for THE UNREST INSIDE ME) and 2006 (for SPECIFIC OVERTURES).
His newest solo show QUIET STARS is scheduled to open this fall
at The Metropolitan Room.
