Our bill is now complete for the May 4 NOTS 32 including many Legends of “The Night”. 1000 STEVIES fans will recognize audience favorites like Diva Songbird AMBER MARTIN and the extraordinary XAVIER SMITH. There are “Rock and Realness” Stevie/Lindsey duo MARYANNE PICCOLO and MIKE GREKO. Method Songstress BRIDGET BARKAN returns with her merry band DUSTY and SHANE. New Orleans based burlesque duo KITTEN + LOU are back along with Boston area chanteuse and witchy event producer NIKI LUPARELLI.
Gracing the stage are two dance performances from recent show stars ANGEL LINA (lead dancer RACHEL KLEIN THEATRE) and JMV, gifted choreographer and dancer. JMV made their NOTS debut dancing with SHERRY VINE and both will continue the drag flame so important to NOTS. Crooner JOHNNY QUINLAN (No. Carolina) rounds out the returning stars.
On to the 2024 debuts! DOROTHY BISHOP is a “female female impersonator” who often interprets Stevie and an operatically trained soprano. New Orleans based British Burlesque star PINKY DEVILLE will repeat her recent NOTS NOLA triumph, and singer/songwriter TARA HACK solos after singing background vocals last year for IT WAS ROMANCE. Finally, trilingual (Sanskrit, Bengali and English) mantra singer EKAYANI will create her own unique take on a Stevie classic.
“Enchantresses of Ceremony” EDITRIX ABBY and PAUL ALEXANDER will assist show founder Valenti in keeping the white winged talent moving. The All-Stevie/All Fleetwood dance floor will be spun by longtime NOTS DJ SAMMY JO and special guest TOMMIE SUNSHINE.
