Michael James Scott joined The Skivvies at 54 Below this week to perform a diva medley, featuring a wide variety of songs, including "On My Own" from Les Mis, Run the World (Girls), Hello by Adele, and many more. Check out the video!
The Skivvies are Lauren Molina and Nick Cearley- award-winning NYC actor/musicians doing stripped down versions of eclectic covers and comedic, genre-hopping mashups. They returned to Joe's Pub with their beloved holiday show. Not only are the arrangements stripped down - cello, ukulele, glockenspiel, melodica - but the Skivvies literally strip down to their underwear to perform. It's undie-rock at its finest.
Featured in People Magazine's Hottest Bodies Issue as the Most Playful performers, the Wall Street Journal calls them "highly original... smart... ingenious." Molina (Rock of Ages, Sweeney Todd, Candide) and Cearley (Pageant, A Midsummer Night's Dream, All Shook Up) started The Skivvies on YouTube becoming sensations with their covers of artists like Robyn, Carole King and Rihanna.
Michael James Scott has performed in many Broadway shows including the original company of The Book of Mormon, the 2010 Broadway and London revival of Hair, as well as playing in the original ensemble in the Broadway cast of Aladdin. He was most recently seen in Casey Nicholaw's third current Broadway hit, Something Rotten, and he will play the role of the Genie in the upcoming Australian production of Aladdin.
