The Tammy Faymous Cabaret
New York’s riotous and raucous hairy-chested, live singing drag queen Tammy Faymous (Alexander Kacala) makes her Joe's Pub debut! In a moment when drag is everywhere and seeing mainstream recognition thanks to "RuPaul's Drag Race," Tammy is desperately attempting to break that status quo in a movement to “MDFA: Make Drag Fun Again.” A misfit and rogue outsider, her no-holds-barred approach to drag and take no prisoners attitude when it comes to performing is what makes her a star (in her mind, at least).
In between songs inspired by great female rockers and pop stars of yesterday and today, the drag disturber mixes and mingles with the audience, flirting with trade while telling stories of her own sordid travels in show business and New York City. Along with celebrated music director Darnell White, artists covered include Chappell Roan, Patti Smith, Lorde, Miley Cyrus, Dua Lipa, Alanis Morissette, Amy Winehouse and more. Her wig may be mess. Her makeup will most definitely be running. But one thing is for sure: Tammy puts on a damn good show.
Not for the faint of the heart or the easily disgusted, this show is not your baby’s drag queen story hour ... so leave your kids at home!
