Ten-Foot Rat Cabaret Celebrates 3rd Anniversary at Under St. Marks 9/7

Ten-Foot Rat Cabaret is proud to announce its Third Anniversary Show! The show that brought you such luminaries as Anthony Atamanuik (30 Rock, Trump Dump, Trump vs Bernie London Debate), Reformed Whores (opening act for Alice Cooper, Weird Al Yankovic), Taradise (2014 Burlesque Idol Award winner) and Dwayne Hill (Mean Girls) celebrates its 3rd anniversary with a very special edition on Wednesday, September 7 at 9:30pm.

Featuring their inspired, curated monthly roster of smart comedy, thrilling music, clever storytelling, sexy burlesque, and theatrical vaudeville spectacle, the show that "forever and irrevocably altered the soul of variety in Old Gotham" offers an amazing lineup of new talent and the best of our returning nightlife superstars. Celebrate the (properly air-conditioned) heat of summer with physical comedy, old world decadence, sexuality, costumes, rock 'n roll, sketch comedy, theatrical characters, and stories!

The company is pleased to announce the return of some of our brightest stars from the past three years. Mary Cyn will bring her mad and enticing character-oriented burlesque to our stage! Songstress Julie Lauren-Stevens will delight your ears with incredible operatic tunes! The hilarious Subhah Agarwal(rocketing her way to the top on MTV and TruTV) will leave you gasping for air between jokes! And we're pleased to welcome our friends at Guilty Pleasures Cabaret, who will wow you with amazing synchronized dance numbers! More to come - check the site (www.tenfootrat.com) for the latest info!

Hosted by Stand Up Comic/Storyteller Jillian Thomas (MTV Live, The Toronto Show, The Buzz, Listen Missy, Much Music's Love Court), Ten-Foot Rat Cabaret presents the greatest music, best dancers, smartest comedians, funniest storytellers and just plain unique acts for one thrilling evening of entertainment. Talent from New York City and around the world takes the stage at the legendary UNDER St. Marks in the heart of the East Village for this monthly event.

The show on Wednesday, September 7th will feature, among others, the funny, brilliant, and strange Bill Chambers, the Rat's Artist-in-Residence. Expect the unexpected, as he might tell a morbidly funny tale of Gotham apartment hunting, animate a dead Teddy Ruxpin a la Mary Shelly, arrange a special appearance by Neil Diamond, or shock you with his live murderbag (seen in the FRIGID Festival, Canuck Cabaret, and punk rock shows all across the Former Communist Bloc).

Master of dark "German" nightclub humor and kitsch, Gregory Levine as "Gregor of Berlin" will regale the audience with horrid tales of Teutonic childhood, decadence, morphine, prostitution, and of course, life in European show biz (seen in the Capital Fringe, FRIGID Festival, Travel Channel, Guilty Pleasures Cabaret and Guinness Book of World Records for Longest Continuous Variety Show).

Ten-Foot Rat Cabaret plays at UNDER St. Marks (94 St. Marks Place between 1st Avenue and Avenue A) every first Wednesday of the month at 9:30pm.
