Bringing tales of sordid travels and inspiration from icons of the cabaret stage, Tammy Faymous is back on Thursday, April 27 at Chelsea Table. Who's Tammy, you ask? Well, she's "a hairy-chested drag queen who sings live" and hopes to MDFA — that's Make Drag Fun Again. Stage dynamo Alexander Kacala puts on this 90-minute show titled The Tammy Faymous Cabaret. In addition to belting out songs, Tammy mixes and mingles with the crowd, offering up vulnerable discoveries about her own experience on stage and off.
Along with celebrated musical director Darnell White and a full band, the night features an eclectic mix of music from Amy Winehouse, Bette Midler and Patti Smith to Miley Cyrus, Tina Turner, Dua Lipa and more. Tammy's wig may be a mess and her makeup may be running, but she promises to deliver an A+ performance, and we are so here for that.
We'll leave you with her words: "While she supports drag queen story hours for kids, this is most definitely not that so leave your babies at home."
