Comic singers and 2009 MAC Nominees Booth & Pat are featured in the debut episode of DFDTV.com's (www.DFDTV.com) new comedy channel, Live-Laughs.com. The world-premiere of their filmed Rockwood Music Hall performance debuts on September 22nd on www.live-laughs.com, and will also be available to stream-on-demand at any time.
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 Carolines, Gotham Comedy Club, Comix, the 2008 LA Comedy Festival, the 2009 Sarasota Improv Festival,
The Duplex,
Don't Tell Mama, the P.I.T., 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.
About the boys...
Booth, a comic musical theatre actor, 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 & 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, two successful years of the LAUGHING MATTERS series with the Florida
Studio Theatre, and MOSSADEGH in 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, recently featured at the
Laurie Beechman Theatre in July 2008. He constantly gigs in NYC, 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. He's currently producing his debut CD, Shame, which he recorded at JGB Studios with fellow songwriter and friend, John Barwick.
