Comic singers Booth Daniels and Patrick Frankfort return with their hilarious duo act on Sunday July 20 at 7PM and Friday August 29th at 7pm – (www.theduplex.com) after numerous successful shows in over the past year.

Booth Daniels & Patrick Frankfort took their decade of warped tomfoolery and bizarre insomnia-induced conversations and put 'em into a duo act - part sketch comedy, part song with just a touch of the off-kilter.  They've been seen at Comix, Don't Tell Mama, the P.I.T., Broadway Comedy Club, Rose's Turn as well as regular appearances on the Joey Reynolds Show on WOR.  Hailed as "the Smothers Brothers on crystal meth", "a well-oiled laugh-riot machine", and "a satirical mini-miracle", they're taking the entertainment world by storm, or at the very least, a sputtering drizzle. With original songs and covers, they promise an evening of quirky entertainment, which is melodic, spontaneous, warped, but most of all, funny.
 
Booth, a comic musical theatre actor, is thrilled to be back at the Duplex.  He gained critical acclaim for his cabaret "Unconventional" that played at Don't Tell Mama in 2006 & 2007. Credits include the world premiere of Charles Mee's "THE MAIL ORDER BRIDE", the national tour of SEUSSICAL (Mr. Mayor), as well as the NYMF and Fringe Festivals.   Regionally, he has worked all over the country, played the leads in SLEUTH (Milo Tindle), THE NERD (Rick Steadman), THEY'RE PLAYING OUR SONG (Vernon Gersh), ANYTHING GOES (Moonface Martin), ANNIE GET YOUR GUN (Sitting Bull), and DON'T DRESS FOR DINNER (Bernard).  Booth also works as a voiceover artist for Abrams/Gentile Entertainment, as well as a studio singer for Stage-Stars records, where he's done recordings of SWEENEY TODD, GODSPELL, BEAUTY & THE BEAST, WEST SIDE STORY, YOU'RE A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN, KISS ME KATE, HAIRSPRAY and COMPANY.  Booth is a graduate of Brandeis University and the masters program at Boston Conservatory.
 
Patrick hit New York after graduating the Boston Conservatory. He's been in such outstanding productions as POKEMON LIVE! at Radio City Music Hall , and the production of LAUGHING MATTERS TOO with the Florida Studio Theatre. He can also be seen traveling with the hilarious sketch group, CITY HALL.  When he's not doing theatre, Patrick is constantly writing music, most notably which will be featured at the Laurie Beechman on July 18th. He can be found around the NYC doing gigs here and there, singing his songs beautifully to his very own guitar licks that can only be described as groovy in the retro cool one four five chord way. Soon to be available to the masses, his debut CD, called Shame, which he recorded at JGB Studios with fellow songwriter and friend, John Barwick.
 
There is a $10 cover and a 2 drink minimum.
