Hudson Players does not pre-cast. Written by Joseph Kesslring, Arsenic and Old Lace is a timeless comedic gem of American theatre. Life is good for Mortimer Brewster. With a dream job as a drama critic for a prominent New York newspaper and recent engagement to his sweetheart Elaine, what could go wrong? Well, what about finding out that his sweet, spinster aunts Martha and Abby have been poisoning lonely old men for years with homemade elderberry wine laced with a touch of arsenic. More? What about learning that his brother Teddy, who thinks himself to be Teddy Roosevelt, has been burying his aunts' victims in the basement thinking they succumbed to Yellow Fever at the Panama Canal. Had enough? How about Mortimer's other brother, the maniacal criminal Jonathan, who decides to hideout from the police at his aunts' house with alcoholic sidekick, Dr. Einstein, on the same night that the aunts were planning to bury their latest victim, which also happens to be the same night Mortimer stops by with his fiancée. Insanity doesn't run in the Brewster family - it gallops! Mix in multiple policemen, including one who wants to be a playwright, and Elaine's pious minister father, Mortimer must rally to help his aunts and protect his fiancé - all while trying to keep his own sanity and avoid his murderous brother's intentions. An uproarious farce, Arsenic and Old Lace is an American classic.

"Tom Waits: In HIs Own Words" starring Marissa Mulder
by michaelsongbook＠gmail.com 05 Sep '18

05 Sep '18

American Songbook Today -a 501(c)(3) non-profit - will present NYCs concert star, Marissa Mulder, in her multi award-winning show Tom Waits: In His Own Words, a celebration of his songs, wit, and wisdom Monday, Sept 24th, 7PM at Nighttown. Tom Waits wrote hits for Bette Midler (Rainbow Sleeves and I Never Talk to Strangers), Bruce Springsteen (Jersey Girl), The Eagles (Ol 55), etc.. Also known for his frequent appearance on the David Letterman Show. Ms. Mulder has appeared at Café Carlyle, Birdland, Carnegie Hall, 54 Below, Joes Pub, Lincoln Center, Metropolitan Room, and Town Hall. Stephen Holden, the New York Times revered critic recently wrote Marissa Mulder is a natural: a rarity among cabaret singers. You never hear her struggling to tell a story or to make a point or to show off the range and beauty of her sparkling, perfectly pitched soprano. Whatever she sings seems to just spill out of her without forethought or calculation. She is the winner of several MAC (Manhattan Association of Cabarets) Awards and Bistro Awards in NYC. Jon Weber, music director. Tickets $25 at brownpapertickets.com. INFO: michaelsongbook(a)gmail.com <mailto:michaelsongbook@gmail.com> or phone 2169128270
