After his New York cabaret debut at the Duplex in October 2005, John Raymond Barker will move uptown to premiere Jerby: Fully Loaded on Restaurant Row. The show will play three performances only at Danny's (346 W 46th St) on April 13, 20 and 27 at 7:00PM.
"
Jerby: Fully Loaded is the comic, bawdy, one-man show created by John Raymond Barker, future ex-Broadway star. John tackles a variety of topics ranging from actor survival jobs, to internet hook-ups, to love, to politics, to drinking too much vodka, to losing weight. His repertoire of songs include the talents of such greats as Linda Perry, Cole Porter, Guns N Roses, Noel Coward, Heart, Prince, Pink, and an original song about the glories of public sex," according to press notes.
"The career of John Raymond Barker has never been dull whether it's having been cast as a singing phone sex girl in a bizarre update of
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight or as a ghostly ventriloquist in the world premiere of the musical,
What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? Additionally, survival jobs have been as thrilling and diverse as Broadway backstage doorman for
Doubt to the Meow Mix mascot cat. John swings both ways, actor-wise, having been seen in
The Devil's Disciple and
A Flea In Her Ear at the Alley Theatre, and
Funny Girl and
Grand Hotel at Theatre Under The Stars and the 5th Avenue Musical Theatre Co."
Tickets are $15 plus $12 food and drink minimum; call (212) 265-8133.
