"Hey, That's My Cake!" in Two Benefit Performances

"Hey, That's My Cake!" makes a special return engagement to THE DUPLEX CABARET THEATRE (61 Christopher Street, NYC - 1-212-255-5438 - http://www.theduplex.com/) for two special performances benefiting AIDS Walk New York. This limited engagement reunites Vinnie Costa and Tom Privitere for a special serving of their musical review. The show will be presented on Sundays, May 4th & 11th at 11:00 pm. Suggested donation is $10.00, plus a 2-drink minimum.

The show, now in its third incarnation, brings the performers back to the club where the piece was originally presented. The duo originally conceived of "Cake!" in the days following September 11. Deciding that the time of "we ought to" was over and "we will" had begun, the two long-time friends began to weave their confection. A dash of Barbra, a pinch of Liza and a sprinkle of Ethel later, the boys baked up a cabaret. Turning Broadway into Vaudeville, the 75-minute laugh-fest celebrates friendship; the twosome provides good-natured barbs, friendly ribbing and exquisite fashion sense.

Tom Privitere, hailing from the musical theatre, and Vinnie Costa, with a background in stand-up comedy, make a perfect team. Considered miniature versions of Frank DeCaro and Nathan Lane, the two draw inspiration from the buddy teams of classic comedy (like Abbot and Costello, or Lewis and Martin, just gayer.)
