In honor of the LGBT community, "Celebrity Autobiography" -- the award-winning stage show that features actors reading selections from the autobiographies of the famous and infamous -- will feature an all-star gay pride cast including Mario Cantone, Rachel Dratch, Cheyenne Jackson, Kristen Johnston, John Cameron Mitchell, Eugene Pack, Dayle Reyfel, Bruce Vilanch, and B.D. Wong. (Lineup subject to change.)
Eugene Pack, who created the series, says, "I would listen to a lot of books-on-tape, particularly autobiographies, and was astounded at what people would write about. When I would get a hold of one of these books and read it out loud to friends, they'd insist I was making it up. But people actually wrote these words! So I decided to put the material up in front of an audience, knowing that it would be extremely entertaining."
Like most gay events, "Celebrity Autobiography: Gay Pride Edition" is a one-night stand, on Saturday, June 26 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $40-$25. A VIP package including a post-show reception with the performers is available for $125. A full service bar is available throughout the show. The Gramercy Theater is located at 127 E. 23rd St. at Lexington Avenue (accessible from the F,V,N,R & #6 trains at 23rd Street). For tickets call 212-352-3101 or click HERE.
