THE BADASS RECORD COLLECTION Brings Elvis Costello's Music To The Brick 7/9-7/18

DMTheatrics and The Brick Theater, Inc. present THE BADASS RECORD COLLECTION. It's cabaret on steroids. It's Greatest Hits albums done live. It's The Badass Record Collection, an open-ended series of musical extravaganzas, featuring tributes to great composers, performers, and genres of 20th and 21st Century pop music.

Devised, Produced, and Directed by Frank Cwiklik. The first installment in this series is TAKING LIBERTIES: AN EVENING OF Elvis Costello.

The agonies and ecstasies of love, lust, and life, the ups and downs of friendships, relationships, and marriage, and the exquisite pains of heartbreak, all are beautifully portrayed in this selection of great compositions by music legend Elvis Costello. This show has been carefully curated by DMTheatrics' director and founder Frank Cwiklik, OOBR-award winning creator of Sugarbaby, the Vegas-themed Antony and Cleopatra, and the infamous Bitch Macbeth.

Reteaming Cwiklik with longtime conspirator Adam Swiderski and recent DMT arrival Becky Byers, TAKING LIBERTIES acts as both a history of the music of Costello, and the performance, musical, and visual styles of the past 50 years of entertainment, all performed with delicious gusto by Orgy of the Dead! star Carolyn Demisch, and a group of performers new to the DMT stage: Adam Enright, Aaron Fuksa, Colleen Horan, Elaine Moran, Evan Toth, and Brianna Tyson. Together, this powerhouse cast presents a live musical performance that is touching and invigorating, exciting and moving, hilariously funny and deeply disturbing - all that music can be, and all uniquely theatrical.
