NYC: ARTURO PADILLA: PINKTUNES
Arturo Padilla returns to DON'T TELL MAMA (343 West 46th Street, NYC - 212-757-0788) with his new show 'PINKtunes' on Sunday, January 19th at 6:00 pm. PINKtunes is a celebration, a cabaret show that highlights the songs that marked key moments of Arturo's journey out and all the way to the Don't Tell Mama stage. In this production, Arturo highlights the surprising fact that Broadway, being so much a part of gay life, and owing so much to the gay community, offers so few songs that were explicitly written for gay characters. PINKtunes showcases these proud songs, and some that feel gay even if they were not written as "gay" songs to start with. Ultimately it is all simply beautiful music, poetry, joy, humor and emotion. A universal experience everyone can relate to. There is a $20 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.

After 13 years, with some mild success in the "provinces" and a lot of disappointment, it was time for a change. So she started acting the role of a legal secretary. But it was never meant to be the role of a lifetime. And now, after 12 long years, it's time to reclaim the dream and set the voice free. Georgia invites you to share in her journey-so-far through the songs that are close to her heart. The songs she grew up with are the songs that helped shape who she is and who she hopes to be as she journeys down a new path to re-discover the Broadway inside.
