THURSDAY, JUNE 3rd


NYC: Booth & Pat: Two Guys, One Guitar, No Standards
MEMBER DISCOUNT - $5 OFF THE COVER

After taking the East Coast by storm, the irreverent music/comedy stylings of Booth & Pat (Booth Daniels & Patrick Frankfort) are heading to the Hollywood Fringe 2010! But before they go, they're stopping off at DON'T TELL MAMA (343 West 46th Street, NYC - 212-757-0788 - ) on Thursday, June 3rd at 7:30 & Saturday, June 5th at 7:00 pm. Booth & Pat present an hour of song, shtick and sketch idiotic in its observations, but ridiculous in its infectiousness. From the original and insightful "Where Have All the Straight Girls Gone?" lamenting Pat's ability to convert the women he dates into lesbians, to a skewering of the beloved "Let It Be", to a parody of Justin Timberlake's "SexyBack" where the undynamic duo dream of all the outdated things they could make stylish (#I'm bringing dial-up back / Those slow connections are where it's at#). It's like Entourage. Minus the cars. And the money. And the HBO contract. But with singing! There is a $10 cover plus a 2-drink minimum. $5 cover for members of CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE.
[Booth & Pat: Two Guys, One Guitar, No Standards will also be appearing as part of HOLLYWOOD FRINGE at COMEDYSPORTZ LA (733 Seward Street, Hollywood, CA - TKTS: 866-811-4111 - ) on Wednesday & Thursday, June 21st & 22nd at 7:00 pm, Friday, June 23rd at 3:00 pm, Saturday, June 24th at 5:00 pm and Sunday, June 25th at 9:00 pm - tickets will be $20.]
