It's January, and that means it's time for New York City Drag personality Witti Repartee's annual Broads and Bawds Cabaret! This year's edition (the 5th!) is "Put It In Your Mouth! Songs about Food and Drink" and will be her first presentation at The Triad Theatre on West 72nd Street on January 20th, 2018.
"After the holidays, we're all too familiar with putting things in our mouth, so I'm very excited to share with you some of my friends and THEIR ideas on the subject!" said Witti in a recent interview.
Co-hosted by drag neophyte Dina Studintz, and with musical direction by John McMahon, this year's show has an exciting mix of performers, including recording artist and Queen of the Bears Candy Samples, the fierce and funny Ruby Powers, cabaret artist Robin Kradles, former Miss Gay Indiana Cassidy Fellows-Sommers and from the cast of last season's "New York's Next Top Drag Queen," Celah Doore. Vocalist Edwin Davis joins the company this year as well as The Brides of Burlesque, Faux Pas Le Fae and Aurora North. Special Guest Scarlette Fiore, who appeared briefly in New York City last October, returns from her native Costa Rica to join this special show.
Witti Repartee's Broads and Bawds 5: Put It In Your Mouth! is produced under the aegis of Kaleidoscope Collaborations, with co-founder Nick DiCeglie. Kaleidoscope Collaborations connects passionate artists and volunteers with progressive causes for the purpose of using their talents to raise awareness, build relationships and provide resources for non-profit organizations working to improve the lives of our neighbors and communities. All proceeds will benefit Iris House, a 25 year old organization founded to meet the needs of women and families impacted by HIV/AIDS in Harlem and the South Bronx.
A gorgeous piece of jewelry has been created and donated by MOANS Couture jewelry will be the focus of a progressive auction.
"Look," remarked Witti Repartee, "Last year, January 20th was a terrible day, and it's time to do something fun and fabulous on the one year anniversary of that inaugural tragedy...P. S., Save the Date for my annual 39th Birthday: Songs in the Key of Orange: Protest and Revolution, July 21 at Rockbar!"
