John
Flynn's "Confessions of a Farm Boy" Extended at JOE'S PUB
One bona fide Broadway
legend. One certified pop diva. And one resentful non-Equity chorus
boy.
After
three sold-out shows at UPSTAIRS AT ROSE'S TURN (55 Grove Street,
NYC - 212-366-5438) and DON'T TELL MAMA (343 West 46th Street, NYC
- 212-757-0788 - http://www.donttellmama.com/)
in June, John Flynn's new one-man show, "Dances With Pitchforks: Confessions
of a Farm Boy" sold out an additional show at JOE'S PUB (425 Lafayette
Street, NYC - Tele-Charge: 212-239-6200 - Box Office: 212-539-8778
- http://www.joespub.com/)
on Sunday, July 21st at 7:30 pm. And additional show at 9:30 pm was
also highly attended. So John has been invited back for two more show
- on Tuesday, August 6th at 7:30 pm and Sunday, August 11th at 9:30
pm. Tickets are $12,
plus a two-drink or $12 food minimum.
What happens when divas
collide? The year
was 1998. Starring in Paper Mill Playhouse's production of GYPSY were
Broadway legend Betty Buckley, pop star Deborah Gibson, and John Flynn
as non-Equity Farm Boy #5. And like any non-Equity Farm Boy #5 with
too much free time on his hands, John shares tales of rehearsal antics
with his friends on the internet via e-mail. Who knew these e-mails
would make it around the world and make their way into the New York
DAILY NEWS? Combining story and song, Mr. Flynn relates how this led
him into much more trouble than he ever imagined.
A recent MAC (Manhattan
Association of Cabaret Artists) Award nominee for Male Musical Comedy,
John Flynn returns with an all-new show. His two previous one-man
shows, "Wildly Inappropriate Songs" and "In Search of the Great American
Cabaret," were both critical and popular successes.
Joining him once again
as musical director is Steve Lavner, who also served as musical director
for "Butch It Up 2: Don't Ask, Don't Tell." Serving as director is
Jason O'Connell, a stand-up comedian who regularly performs at Carolines,
Gotham, and other clubs across town.
