Salty Brine proudly announces the premiere of a new cabaret, Thank U 4 a Funky Time, as the latest installment in his series, Salty Brine's Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret. Salty Brine's Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret, which performs every Wednesday 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.

Salty Brine and Nate Weida know all the ways to please you in this funkalicious evening of grooves, moves, and attitude. Put on your bedroom eyes and leave your inhibitions at the door as this dynamic duo unfolds a tangled web of awkward sex stories and lessons in lovemaking, all set to the superfine music of Prince's dirty little album Purple Rain. If you're lucky, we might be saying Thank U 4 a Funky Time after this month's edition of Salty Brine's Spectacular Living Record Collection Cabaret.

Thank U 4 a Funky Time, created and performed by Salty Brine and Nate Weida, is directed by Andrew Neisler with dramaturgy by Anne Davison, costume design by Heather McDevitt Barton, lighting design by Chris D'Angelo and sound design by Haley Wolf. The show also features performances by musicians Ben Arons, John Bennett, Benjamin B. Lee and Emil McGloin.
