By: BWW News Desk Feb. 28, 2006
Fresh from her sold out solo debut at Joe's Pub, Natalie Joy Johnson, star of the cult hit BARE, comes to the Cutting Room (19 West 24th Street ) with Our Lady J and the Pink Champagne Orchestra on Wednesday, March 15th 2006.
Equally at home in the worlds of pop, rock, rhythm and blues, country, and musical theatre, Johnson will explore her music vocabulary in this exciting evening with musical director Jonah Speidel and the eclectic Pink Champagne Orchestra featuring the Bubblies in a program directed by Ben Rimalower (Joy). The evening is produced by Marissa Kamin.
Johnson will cover such diverse artists as Missy Elliott, Reba McEntire, Michael Jackson, Van Morrison, Harold Arlen, and Jill Scott. Johnson will also sing original music by musical director Jonah Spiedel and from Bare "A Quiet Night at Home" by Damon Intrabartolo and Jon Hartmere Jr.
Natalie Joy Johnson was hailed as "a knockout" by The New York Times for her breakout Off-Broadway debut as Nadia in Bare: A Pop Opera. Other recent roles include the NY Musical Theatre Festival's hit production of But I'm A Cheerleader (Sinead), Move It and It's Yours (Eloise/Caresse), Joy (Kegan), Slut (Mrs. Winterbottom), and the 2001 National Touring production of Godspell (cast recording available on DRG Records). Earlier this year, Natalie collaborated with Adam Fleming and Jonah Speidel on their Feinstein's at the Regency debut - "Postponed Indefinitely." Natalie has been a featured soloist in various concerts and benefits around Manhattan, including such venues as Joe's Pub, Birdland, the Palace Theatre, the New Amsterdam Theatre and the Iridium Jazz Club.
