MIRANDA SINGS Returns to Birdland WIth First NYC Concert Appearance 9/14

Jim Caruso's Cast Party is thrilled and mildly nervous to present YouTube sensation Miranda Sings in concert on Monday, September 14 at 7pm. The event will be part of the award-winning concert series, Broadway at Birdland.

In her New York City concert debut, Miranda will be performing with some of Broadway's biggest stars, and give a lucky celebrity guest one of her much-discussed and sought-after voice lessons. You will not want to miss this lipstick-wearing, epileptic-eyebrowed, crooked-smiling beauty as she performs her magic at Birdland for one night only!

Miranda Sings is an internet character created by California-based theatre student Colleen Ballinger, and proliferated via YouTube. The character is a satire of increasingly common YouTube videos featuring mediocre or even bad singers who film themselves singing as a form of self-promotion. Miranda is supposedly from Tacoma, Washington, sings comically off-key, and, when confronted by viewers who take the videos seriously, uses The catchphrase "Haters back off!" The
characterization includes facial tics, unusually active eyebrows and a crooked smile. She also wears lipstick drawn beyond all natural borders and often dances stiffly to the music she is performing. Ms. Ballinger's character has enjoyed widespread popularity, particularly among musical theatre fans, and has recently appeared as Miranda Sings at live club and theater venues in New York (The Minskoff Theatre, Jim Caruso's Cast Party), Los Angeles and London (Ambassador Theatre).
