Comic singers Booth Daniels and Patrick Frankfort return to the Duplex with their hilarious duo act on December 5 at 7PM & December 6 at 10PM after successful shows in New York City and Los Angeles over the past year. The December 6th show will be a joint performance with the sketch comedy group FUCT (Fordham Underground Comedy Troupe).
Booth Daniels & Patrick Frankfort took their decade of warped tomfoolery and bizarre insomnia-induced conversations and put 'em into a duo act - part sketch comedy, part song with just a touch of the off-kilter. They've been seen at Gotham Comedy Club, Comix, the Los Angeles Comedy Festival, The Duplex,
Don't Tell Mama, the P.I.T., Broadway Comedy Club, Rose's Turn as well as regular appearances on the Joey Reynolds Show on WOR. Hailed as "the Smothers Brothers on crystal meth", "a well-oiled laugh-riot machine", and "a satirical mini-miracle", they're taking the entertainment world by storm, or at the very least, a sputtering drizzle. With original songs and covers, they promise an evening of quirky entertainment, which is melodic, spontaneous, warped, but most of all, funny.
Booth, a comic musical theatre actor, is thrilled to be back at the Duplex. He gained critical acclaim for his cabaret "Unconventional" that played at
Don't Tell Mama in 2006 & 2007. Credits include the world premiere of
Charles Mee's "The Mail Order Bride", the national tour of Seussical (Mr. Mayor), as well as the NYMF and Fringe Festivals. Regionally, he has worked all over the country, played the leads in Sleuth (Milo Tindle), The Nerd (Rick Steadman), They're Playing Our Song (Vernon Gersh), Anything Goes (Moonface Martin), Annie Get Your Gun (Sitting Bull), and Don't Dress for Dinner (Bernard). Booth also works as a voiceover artist for Abrams/Gentile Entertainment, as well as a studio singer for Stage-Stars records, where he's done recordings of
The Little Mermaid, Sweeney Todd, Godspell, Beauty and the Beast,
West Side Story, You're a Good Man Charlie Brown, Kiss Me Kate,
Hairspray and Company. Booth is a graduate of
Brandeis University and the masters program at Boston Conservatory.
Patrick hit New York after graduating the Boston Conservatory. He's been in such outstanding productions as Pokemon Live! at Radio City Music Hall, Laughing Matters Too with the Florida Studio Theatre, and the NYC Fringe Festival. He can also be seen traveling with the hilarious sketch group, City Hall. When he's not doing theatre, Patrick is constantly writing music, which was recently featured at the
Laurie Beechman Theatre this past July. He can be found around NYC doing gigs, singing his songs beautifully to his very own guitar licks that can only be described as groovy in the retro cool one four five chord way. Soon to be available to the masses, his debut CD, called Shame, which he recorded at JGB Studios with fellow songwriter and friend, John Barwick.
The show costs $10 and there is a 2 Drink Minimum.
