By: Chloe Rabinowitz Jan. 23, 2024
THE GREEN ROOM 42 will present a special evening with living legend and cult film icon Mink Stole and San Francisco drag impresario and filmmaker Peaches Christ for two performances on Friday, February 16 and Saturday, February 17, both at 7:00 PM. Mink (Pink Flamingos, Hairspray, But I'm A Cheerleader) and Peaches (All About Evil, Hulu's “Drag Me To Dinner”) have been close friends for over two decades and they would like you to join them for an evening of storytelling, film clips and live song in a wildly entertaining and uncensored exposé that is as hilarious as it is revealing. The New York shows are part of a national tour that brings the duo to Salem, MA; Providence, RI; Philadelphia, PA; and Washington, D.C. If you're a fan of John Waters' films, Divine, drag history, or cult movies, this is an intimate, revelatory, and heartfelt event you don't want to miss.
Mink Stole is best known for her work with filmmaker John Waters, with whom she has created the iconic characters of Connie Marble in Pink Flamingos, Taffy Davenport in Female Trouble, and Dottie Hinkle in Serial Mom, to name a few. Other film roles include Nancy, the mother of a lesbian, in But I'm A Cheerleader, and Evelyn the librarian in All About Evil, written and directed by Joshua Grannell, aka Peaches Christ. Mink was Peaches' first live celebrity guest at the legendary Midnight Mass and they have performed together many times since, notably in Return to Grey Gardens, and their two-woman show, Idol Worship. With her Wonderful Band, Mink has released a CD, Do Re MiNK.
Peaches Christ is a filmmaker, event producer and cult leader living in San Francisco. She produces and hosts events in partnership with PolyArts Management for symphony orchestras and her holiday show annually plays London's prestigious Royal Albert Hall. Peaches is a filmmaker, the alter- ego of Joshua Grannell, writer and director of the feature film All About Evil. Joshua is the co-owner of the Into the Dark production company which produces immersive theater, including the popular Terror Vault show at the historic San Francisco Mint building. Peaches has appeared in many films and television shows during her career and co-hosts the cult movie podcast, Midnight Mass.
Mink Stole and Peaches Christ will perform on Friday, February 16 and Saturday, February 17, both at 7:00 PM, at The Green Room 42 (570 Tenth Avenue at 42nd Street, on the 4th Floor of Yotel). The cover charge ranges from $20-$80. Ringside, premium and premium booths include a post-show meet & greet, photo with Mink and Peaches, priority seating, and a signed commemorative event poster.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE 2024 CALENDAR AT
THE GREEN ROOM 42
Friday, January 26 at 7:00 PM
Following countless sellout performances, Reeve Carney returns to play another solo concert after starring in Hadestown on Broadway. He is best known for his portrayal of Dorian Gray on Showtime's “Penny Dreadful,” Riff Raff in Fox's Rocky Horror Picture Show Reimagining, as well as originating the role of Peter Parker in Julie Taymor/U2's Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark. Featuring selections from his 5-time Independent Music Award-winning album, Youth Is Wasted, as well a few surprises from the Broadway canon and the Great American Songbook, Reeve delivers a one-man-show cabaret that feels more like an invitation-only after-party than a traditional concert performance.

“Wellness Check”
Directed by Tony Award winner Marissa Jaret Winokur
Broadway and SiriusXM star John Hill brings his hot solo show back by popular demand. Hills set list of original comedy pop songs continues to grow from fan favorites like the ballad of his homophobic chihuahua, being stalked by a sexual predator at Six Flags, demonic possession, gay fashion victims, and shocking tales of hot mic moments with celebrities like Jerry Seinfeld and Iyanla Vanzant - to new songs about domestic air travel, love, and the demon baby that lives next door who terrorizes him at night.

Ginger Minj and GIDGET GALORE

“Sunday Night Music Club”
For 19.5 years (including 108 pandemic livestreams), pianist and singer Brian J. Nash performed every Sunday night in New York City, and now he's bringing some of his favorite moments from those (literally) thousands of hours to the stage with a full band in a brand-new solo show. From broken-down or ridiculous arrangements of pop tunes, his legendary Nash-ups, or one-man musicals, Brian brings his trademark athletic piano-playing to everything from Sondheim to Tori Amos to ‘80s pop. Odds of improv: high.
Thursdays, March 28, June 6, September 26 and December 5 at 7:00 PM
