For THE MILLAY SISTERS CABARET, 53 Above becomes a private soiree where the audience is greeted by Norma, Vincent’s younger sister, who serves as your hostess. Norma invites the audience to hear popular songs from the era as well as poems of her famous sister. Performance at 7pm. Doors open at 6:30pm. Admission $10 ($5 goes to The Millay Society) 2 drink minimum August 29th is the anniversary of Edna St. Vincent’s historic appearance at The White Hall in Camden Maine. In 1912 she recited her poem “Renascence” there and the door opened to her future as a world renown poet. This event is a benefit for the The Millay Society at Steepletop. Steepletop is Vincent Millay’s estate, and home to the society. Located in Austerlitz, NY, Vincent lived and worked there for the last 25 years of her life. It is in danger of closing https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/24/arts/edna-st-vincent-millays-farmhouse-steepletop-faces-closure.html Please help preserve this historic landmark and Vincent’s legacy.

He brought the show to Don’t Tell Mama Cabaret and performed sets at The Duplex and The West End.

He’s opened for Phyllis Diller, Judy Gold, and Judy Tenuta, sang the National Anthem for the Chicago Bears and Chicago Blackhawks, and danced for Jessica Simpson.
