SPECIAL - IN NYC: THE HOLLY WOODLAWN SHOW AT THE BEECHMAN - 2 SHOWS ONLY!
In a rare public appearance, Andy Warhol Superstar Holly Woodlawn returns to New York with a new live show, The Holly Woodlawn Show. It will be presented for two performances only: Friday, May 17th and Monday, May 20th, both shows at 7:30 pm at THE WEST BANK CAFE/LAURIE BEECHMAN THEATRE (407 West 42nd Street, NYC - 212-695-6909 - ). The Holly Woodlawn Show is a new evening of songs and stories by this incomparable transgender artist, as well as a frank question & answer session. It includes her signature rendition of the Lou Reed song "Take a Walk on the Wild Side," plus other classics. Woodlawn will be accompanied by Lance Cruce, long-time pianist for Joan Rivers. Born in Puerto Rico in 1946, HOLLY WOODLAWN was part of the Andy Warhol Factory scene in the 1960s and 1970s, the wildly creative underground downtown Manhattan scene that created visual art, films, music, and performance. Along with fellow Warhol Superstars and associates including Lou Reed, Edie Sedgwick, Sylvia Miles, Viva, Penny Arcade, and Candy Darling, Holly appeared in projects regularly and the gossip columns constantly. Her leading role in the film "Andy Warhol's Trash," directed by Paul Morrissey and co-starring the iconic Joe Dallesandro, catapulted her to international stardom. Noted director George Cukor even petitioned to have Woodlawn nominated for an Academy Award for the role. She appeared on stage in two plays by Jackie Curtis: Heaven Grand in Amber Orbit and Vain Victory. There is a $22 cover plus a $15 food/drink minimum. To purchase tickets, call 212-352-3101 or visithttp://www.SpinCycleNYC.com. Please note: This performance will be filmed live as part of a documentary on Holly's life that is currently in production.
