Broadway and Television's "tight little ball of spunk, bad ass and class," Haviland Stillwell will celebrate the release of her album, HOW I ROLE, in her debut(ante) concert at Joe's Pub in New York City on September 12, 2010 at 7:30pm. Broadway audiences know Stillwell as an original cast member in the revivals of LES MISERABLES and FIDDLER ON THE ROOF. TV and film work includes the recent feature Lifetime movie THE CLIENT LIST (Lifetime, with Jennifer Love Hewitt), EASTWICK, SIX DEGREES, NOW AND THEN and BELOW THE BELTWAY.
An authentic Georgia peach, Stillwell was born in Savannah and graduated from The Paideia School in Atlanta before moving to NYC and graduating with honors from NYU. Now based in Los Angeles, she regularly performs concerts there including LA hotspots Eleven, Upright Cabaret, and Show at Barre. She also performed with Rosie O'Donnell for r family cruises, hosted the broadwayworld.com show FLIRT, a webseries with Riese from autostraddle.com, and an abundant list of fun things happening that she can't even talk about...YET. She is also a writer, teacher, activist, and advice giver, and you can read all about it on her website http://www.havilandstillwell.com and by following her on Twitter, @MissHaviland.
The album HOW I ROLE, produced and mixed by Michael Croiter and music directed, orchestrated, and arranged by Steven Jamail, is an Intergalactic Glam Pop frolic through seemingly different musical genres, using universal themes and the velvety chameleon voice of The Haviland (not to be confused with De Havilland) to remind us all of the reality of connectivity. This is abstract (if you want to go there)... and it's also a really accessible, fun set of music, most of which you have definitely heard before - just not this way!
The set will also feature a surprise guest performance, original songs by Kristy Hanson and Diane Warren and covers of Heart, Lady Gaga, John Mellancamp, Bette Midler, Leonard Bernstein, Dolly Parton, Diana Ross, Gladys Knight, and Marilyn Monroe.
Tickets for the release concert at Joe's Pub are just $15 and can be purchased by calling (212-539-8778), and online by visiting www.joespub.com or by clicking HERE. Joe's Pub is located at 425 Lafayette St., NYC. The album How i Role will be available for purchase at the show, as well as online.
