On Wednesday, March 6, 2013, the Top 13 (two people had dropped out) sang uptempo songs from 1969. I rocked out The Rolling Stones classic, “Honky Tonk Women”. It was a super fun night. On Wednesday, March 13, 2013, the theme is Broadway, and we find out who makes it to the Top 12 with all 13 performing the Broadway song they have prepared. I will be singing “Run, Freedom, Run” from Urinetown. I’ve seen some of the shows that people will be singing from, and it promises to be another great evening of music.
This competition is season 11 of Stonewall Sensation at the famous Stonewall Inn. I am competing, American Idol-style, each week for a grand prize of $1000 & a fully-produced show, plus all of the exposure that comes with.
The judges include Time Out New York theatre critic & President of the New York Drama Critics’ Circle, Adam Feldman; Susan Campanaro (aka Lavinia Draper); and Miss Fire Island & Glammy Award nominee, Ariel Sinclair, with celebrity guest judges each week. The show is hosted by Bistro, MAC, and Nightlife Award winner Brandon Cutrell and the sensational Joshua Stephen Kartes will be on piano. What’s particularly exciting to me is the chance to get feedback, notes, & criticism from these very talented people who I can learn a great deal from.
Doors open at 9PM*. Show starts at 10PM (or so).
*They show American Idol on screens around the bar if you are a big fan of that show.
