Photo Flash: Meet the Hooligans of VILLAIN: DEBLANKS' Next Show

54 Below, Broadway's Supper Club, presents a special performance of Villain: DeBlanks, a fill-in-the-blanks whodunnit, at 9:30 pm on Tuesday, August 4, to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.

Laugh your (BODY PART)_____ off at this one-night-only benefit show starring Tony-nominee Brenda Braxton (Smokey Joe's Café, Chicago), Kingsley Leggs (Sister Act, The Color Purple), Angela Robinson (OWN Network's The Haves and the Have Nots, The Color Purple), Trent Armand Kendall (Bat-Boy, Five Guys Named Moe - West End), Carly Hughes(Pippin, Chicago), and Bernard Dotson (Finian's Rainbow, Chicago).

A Time Out NY Critics' Pick written by Billy Mitchell, Villain: DeBlanks is an uproarious improvisational comedy where the cast says words you put in their mouths! The audience provides nouns, adjectives, and verbs (the wilder, the better), and the actors provide the laughs -uncensored and unrehearsed-as they enact the story of Philip DeBlanks' untimely demise. It's "Clue" meets adult "Mad Libs," performed by some of the funniest people in show biz. Like a ride to summer camp in the back of a station wagon, this hilarious performance will be ridiculously one-of-a-kind.

Presented in association with La Vie Productions/R.Erin Craig.

Villain: DeBlanks plays 54 Below (254 West 54th Street) on August 4 at 9:30 pm. Doors open 8:45pm. There is a $25/$35/$65 cover charge and $25 food and beverage minimum.
