We Are The Song: After The Storm Presents

House Of Love: A Special Evening with Robin Skye to benefit the After The Storm Foundation with special guests Randy Redd, Cole Burden, George Petit and more

5 years after Hurricane Katrina we all continue to unite and help do our part to rebuild the lives of those broken and shattered in New Orleans. The problems and challenges that have been created by what is now deemed one of the worst natural disasters to ever occur on US soil are legend. No one can hope to set the whole city of New Orleans back on its feet overnight, but by working with one community center at a time, in one neighborhood at a time, we believe that the healing power of arts can make a difference.

The After The Storm Foundation was established to offer assistance and support to the North Rampart Street Community Center and other relief organizations serving the youth of New Orleans. The first step in the foundation's creation was the formation of a life-to-life link between the New York music, theater and film communities and NRSCC (formerly St. Mark's Community Center). After The Storm, now available on DVD, is Hilla Medalia's award-winning feature-length documentary film that follows the production of the musical Once On This Island at NRSCC from auditions through performances in New Orleans and New York and also includes the story of each young actor's life in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. The foundation continues its work in New Orleans through fundraising, screenings, theater camps, music classes and songwriting workshops. www.afterthestormfoundation.org

HOUSE OF LOVE, Robin Skye's stunning debut album (June 2010) produced by George Petit, co-written by Petit and Randy Redd and released by Mar Creation is available on iTunes and Amazon.com. A portion of all proceeds from the sale of HOUSE OF LOVE go directly to the After The Storm Foundation.

OUR HIT PARADE STARRING Bridget Everett, Kenny Mellman AND NEAL MEDLYN

Wednesdays September 29, October 27 at 9:30 PM; $20

Our Hit Parade is a live top-ten countdown show created by Tony nominee and Obie winner Kenny Mellman (Kiki & Herb), carnal chanteuse Bridget Everett (At Least It's Pink at Ars Nova), pop song opera impresario Neal Medlyn (Neal Medlyn's Unpronounceable Symbol at P.S. 122), producer and MTV cameraman Brendan Kennedy, and writers Ada Calhoun and Peter Schjeldahl. The show is inspired by the musical sketch series "Your Hit Parade" that ran on radio and then television from 1935 to 1959. On that show, cast members performed the week's most popular songs as comically literal skits. In this show, the hosts and special guest stars from the local performance scene present their renditions of current popular hits live on stage!

SHELLS COCKTAIL HOUR
Thursday, September 30, Wednesdays, October 27 at 7:30 PM & December 1 at 7:30 PM; $15

Fresh out of a less-than-fulfilling relationship, Michelle "Shells" Hoffman is ready to shed her 9-to-5 facade and convince her ex that she is more than just a successful JP Morgan Senior Analyst. Hopping from hilarious original songs to tales of the "rough" life, Shells feverishly attempts to convince her audience and her ex that she is finally "over it." Armed with a glass of Shiraz and a penchant for drunk-dialing the one person she should not, Shells demonstrates that the fabulous Sex And The City life she thinks she is living and the life she actually leads are two very different things. Hilarious, engaging and ultimately quite poignant, SHELLS leaves audience members cringing and saying, "I know her," or worse, "I am her!"
