CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE REVIEWS BOOTH & PAT: TWO GUYS, ONE GUITAR, NO STANDARDS

On Friday, June 4th, we were at DON'T TELL MAMA (343 West 46th Street, NYC - 212-757-0788 -  ) at 7:00 pm to catch BOOTH & PAT: TWO GUYS, ONE GUITAR, NO STANDARDS. The title just about says it all! Booth & Pat (Booth Daniels & Patrick Frankfort) are heading to the Hollywood Fringe 2010 (June 21st through 26th) and their 2-show run at MAMA'S was sort of a "dress rehearsal". Those who follow me on TWITTER are already familiar with their unique style and quirky outlook on life - I re-tweet their daily "Little Known Fact" items most every day. The show was a raucous, wild, no-holds-barred hour of original parody songs, off the wall humor, and a lot of subjects one never hears about in cabaret. I love creative, talented, leading-edge performers, and I love what these two guys do! With energy, nonstop action, and total abandon of all inhibitions, this pair kept the room roiled with laughter (and a few catcalls). More intricate and (at times offensive) than an episode of Family Guy the brilliance of the writing, the precise and spot-on timing and up-to-date (sometimes "too soon") commentary was explosively funny. While they did a tribute set at the end of the show to the Smothers Brothers, that comparison is too tame. These two total-talent guys are breaking new ground in both cabaret and comedy. Los Angeles, known for it's earthquakes, is in for the shock of their lives!
"Booth & Pat: Two Guys, One Guitar, No Standards" will be appearing as part ofHOLLYWOOD FRINGE at COMEDYSPORTZ LA (733 Seward Street, Hollywood, CA - TKTS: 866-811-4111 ) on from June 21st through 26th - showtimes vary so see the website - tickets are $20.
