Nancy and Beth, Featuring Megan Mullally and Stephanie Hunt

Friday, May, 10, 2019 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm

See Website

Join Emmy Award-winner Megan Mullally (“Will & Grace”) and Stephanie Hunt (“Friday Night Lights,” “Californication”) performing as their musical alter-egos, Nancy And Beth. The punk/vaudeville heart-child of two friends, Nancy And Beth pick dope songs and then sing them while dancing and wearing matching costumes. With a combination of psychic twinship, childlike enthusiasm, rigorous preparation of songs, and zero preparation of what happens in between, Megan, Stephanie and the five dollfaces who back them up have created a musical outfit that is celebratory, surprising, sweet, tuneful, eye-catching, thought-provoking, and amusing. Hailed as “the most avant-garde show to play the Cafe Carlyle in recent memory,” (Theater Mania) and “musical misfits” (NPR All Things Considered), Nancy And Beth have also wormed their way into the Newport Folk Festival, the Grand Ole Opry, London’s Royal Festival Hall, Solid Sound, and many other sweet venues in the US and abroad.

Nancy And Beth is Megan Mullally (vocals, choreography); Stephanie Hunt (vocals); Datri Bean (keyboards, vocals); Petra Haden (strings, vocals); Joe Berardi (drums); Andrew Pressman (bass, vocals); Roy Williams (guitar, vocals).
