GAY CAMP TALENT SHOW at Laurie Beechman to Kick Off Pride Week in NYC

It's gay; it's camp; it's My Big Gay 'Gay Camp' Talent Show!

Following the sold-out run of the new play Gay Camp as part of the 2012 New York International Fringe Festival and Fringe Encore Series, the show's creators are returning with a one-night-only cabaret titled My Big Gay 'Gay Camp' Talent Show, playing at the Laurie Beechman Theatre on Monday, June 24 at 7pm.

Kicking off 2013 Gay Pride Week, this hilarious cabaret night will feature 10 of New York's finest singers, improvisers, and stand-up comedians all vying for the audience chosen 'Best in Camp' Award.

Several comedic singer/songwriters will be performing their own original songs in the cabaret including Nadia Quinn (Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson) and Bradford Proctor (It's a Brad, Brad World at the Beechman).

Performances also include singer/actress Mariand Torres (Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812; First National Tour of Wicked), stand-up comedian Marc Maietta (Laugh Attack Comedy Festival) and dancer Lawrence Neuhauser (National Tour of Movin' Out).

Comedic actors Christian Mansfield (Broadway Bares; National Tour of 42nd Street), Ken Urso, and Philip Mutz (also co-author of Gay Camp) will reprise their Gay Camp roles as hosts of the cabaret evening. My Big Gay 'Gay Camp' Talent Show is directed by Arizona-native Phillip Fazio (Gay Camp; Arizona premiere of Grey Gardens and August: Osage County).

My Big Gay 'Gay Camp' Talent Show will perform on Monday June 24th at 7pm at The Laurie Beechman Theatre, downstairs at 407 West 42ndStreet, NYC.

My Big Gay 'Gay Camp' Talent Show runs 60 minutes with no intermission. Doors open at 6:15pm. Show starts at 7pm.
