Gay Marshall to Return to Pangea with GAY'S PAREE

International theater actress, Gay Marshall, reprises her critically lauded show, Gay's Paree, at downtown's alternative supper-club, Pangea, for four performances this spring.

Marshall's real-life experiences of singing all over Paris, to varying degrees of adventure, delight and misery, unfold through songs by Charles Aznavour, Boris Vian, Francis Lemarque, Dave Frishberg Jacques Brel, and Edith Piaf in both French and English, featuring Marshall's own English adaptations. From the streets, to dives and chic cabarets and nightclubs, boats on the Seine, private concerts and splendid theaters, Gay's Paree includes stories of some of Marshall's most interesting encounters in the City of Light. Musical Director Ian Herman on piano.

Shows are at 7:30 PM on Wednesdays March 15th, 22nd, 29th and April 5th. Pangea is in the East Village at 178 Second Avenue between 11th and 12th Streets.
