Salty Brine proudly announces the premiere of a new cabaret, He's So Unusual, as the sixth installment in his series, Salty Brine's Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret. Salty Brine's Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret, which performs on Wednesdays as part of Brine's residency at The Red Room (85 E. 4th St.), explores a different iconic album each month in a live cabaret setting. He's So Unusual, inspired by by Cyndi Lauper's debut album She's So Unusual, will run on September 9, 16, 23 and 30 with doors opening at 7:30pm and shows beginning at 8:00pm.
Hello, dearies! We are all a twitter! This month Salty Brine's Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret celebrates the 1930s pansy: That seemingly delicate flower of a well-coifed gentleman who could cut one down to size with just a quick flick of his limp wrist. Join us for a stroll through the sparkling underbelly of Prohibition-era New York in this symphonic salute to the sissy - with the help of the incomparable Miss
Cyndi Lauper and her debut album She's So Unusual.
He's So Unusual is directed by Max Reuben and incudes dramaturgy by Taylor Adamson and arrangements by Ben Langhorst. The show features lighting design by Michael McGee, sound design by AJ Surasky and costume design by nightlife personality One-Half Nelson.
Tickets are $15 and can be purchased online at
