TV: Activist David Mixner & Friends Premiere OH HELL NO! at New World Stages

Legendary civil rights activist and author David Mixner just premiered Oh Hell No!, an evening autobiographical storytelling, in a special one-night-only event last week on October 27, 2014 at New World Stages (340 West 50th Street). BroadwayWorld was there for the special night and you can go inside the big night below!

It may be his hard-won reputation as a political firebrand that has secured David Mixner his place in the history books, but his secret weapon has always been his folksy, homespun charm. A natural born storyteller, in the grand tradition of the American South, Mixner brings his audience right onto his metaphorical front porch in his theatrical tell-all, Oh Hell No!, recounting both personal and public details of his headline-grabbing and history-shaping life. Directed by Stephen Brackett, musical direction by Mat Eisenstein and featuring a specially assembled quartet boasting the voices of Sarah Uriarte Berry, Chris Bolan, Megan Osterhaus, and Will Reynolds, Oh Hell No! is a riveting and singular evening of story and song.

Proceeds from this one night only event benefit Point Foundation, which empowers promising lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer students to achieve their full academic and leadership potential - despite the obstacles often put before them - to make a significant impact on society.
