Cabaret Room: HAD ENUF OF THE BLUES, 7:00pm

October 14 2023, 7:00 pm-8:30 pm

$20

HERE’S WHAT THE AUDIENCE IN MARCH SAID:

“Blew the roof off of Pangea,” “Incredible sold out show,” “Over the top wonderful,” “Mind-blowing,” “Incredible; I am at a loss for words,” “Brilliant!!!!!”

Had Enuf of the Blues is an evening of sixtry years of eclectic tunes and quirky characters created by Don Arrington, from 1963 to the present, performed by Don, with the lovely Louisa Bradshaw and Dionne McClain- Freeney

Characters highlighted will include a down-and-out street queen; a homicidal last little girl on the block; a pretentious penthouse survivor of the cyber currency collapse; a down-and-out burlesque agent hoping for a comeback with a one-woman chorus line; people starving but dancing (they must keep moving: there is no heat); and many other beloved denizens celebrated in the music and lyrics of Don Arrington.

Don Arrington a fixture of Downtown theater since the seventies, working actor and singer with Will Leach and John Braswell’s ETC Company of LaMaMa and with John Vaccaro in the Playhouse of the Ridiculous . As a composer and playwright, he is known, among other works, for his musical, “Allegros!,” musical revues “If This Ain’t It!,” “On the Block,” and dance theater piece, “Without Apparent Motive,” He was last seen at Pangea in his “On the Block”. He is currently preparing for production of his new full length play with music, “Cemetery Beach”.

Louisa Bradshaw is an actress, singer, songwriter and comedienne. She has worked extensively in Cabaret and musical theatre in Berlin and NYC. She met Don Arrington when she was lucky enough to get cast in his production of “If This Ain’t It” at Theater for the New City in 2010. She is excited to bring her talents to more of Don’s repertoire this March 2023! She is also very excited to work with him again and at Pangea, her favorite East Village Venue no less…XoLouisa
