The undie-rock comedy-pop duo of Lauren Molina and Nick Cearley just made their 42West debut in THE SKIVVIES...GOLD AS ICE. The show featured an all-star line up of guest artists from the worlds of Broadway, Television and Film, including TONY Award winners Lena Hall (Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Kinky Boots) and Laura Benanti (Gypsy, The Sound of Music, Nine), and Colin Donnell (Arrow, The Affair), Patti Murin (Lysistrata Jones, Xanadu), Sierra Boggess (Phantom of the Opera, The Little Mermaid), Autumn Hurlbert (Legally Blonde),Erik Altemus (Pippin), Betsy Wolfe (Bullets Over Broadway, The Mystery of Edwin Drood) and many more.

Check out highlights from the concert below!

The Skivvies are Lauren Molina and Nick Cearley, award-winning singer/actor/musicians performing stripped down arrangements of eclectic covers and eccentric originals. Not only is the music stripped down - cello, ukulele, glockenspiel, melodica - but the Skivvies literally strip down to their underwear to perform. Molina (Broadway's Rock of Ages and Sweeney Todd) and Cearley (All Shook Up) became YouTube sensations with their Skivvies covers of artists like Robyn, Carole King and Rihanna. The videos led to live shows, and now this undie-rock comedy-pop duo, assisted by drummer Shannon Ford, performs to sold-out audience in New York and beyond. They also have a single, "Hardbody Hoedown," with a music video directed by Augusten Burroughs, bestselling author of Running With Scissors. The Wall Street Journal calls them "smart, sophisticated...ingenious" and The New York Times says, "They strip with no tease. There's no suspense or winks at the audience . . . At the same time, they don't ignore their sex appeal so much as turn it into an offhand joke."
