THE VOICE WITHIN, written by and starring Broadway's Lindsey Brett Carothers (Bring it On, WICKED (National Tour)) will return to The Duplex for two performances this fall after its acclaimed world premiere on August 7. The newly announced dates are Thursday September 22nd at 9:30, and Sunday October 9th at 7pm. The show is directed by Marshall Pailet with music direction by Andrea Grody. Drew Fornarola and Madame Mathieu Productions will produce.
Called "a tiny dynamo...a powerful singer and a clown of the first order" (Gerry Geddes, BistroAwards.com), Carothers' THE VOICE WITHIN isn't your average 'I was born and raised' cabaret. Lindsey gets hired to make people laugh, and so that's exactly what she's gonna do for you. Besides, if Lindsey isn't spending her time making people laugh... she's not positive she exists, but she's curious to find out what it feels like to do something serious maybe once, too.
The Duplex CABARET THEATER is located at 61 Christopher Street (on 7th Avenue, just off the 1 train). Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door, and there is a two beverage minimum. Seating is strictly limited. Please visit http://www.theduplex.com/site/calendar to reserve tickets.
