Pangea’s “Ghost Light Series” begins with in-character singer-improvisor Tammy Faye Starlite in “Tammy Faye Starlite: Standing By” on Friday October 23 at 8 pm ET. On Friday October 30, also at 8 pm, Penny Arcade stages her new mixed media performance, “Notes from the Underground.”
Live-streamed before a ghost audience, Starlite, the far-right Southern evangelical country singer, sings the songs of Patti Smith, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, Pete Townsend and Jim Morrison. Ever modest, she includes several of her own inspirational tunes in this new show featuring her frequent musicianaries, Keith Hartel on bass and Richard Feridun on guitars. Her director is Michael Schiralli.
Penny Arcade’s “Notes From The Underground” investigates where we are right now and offers an antidote to the rise of authoritarianism, virtue signaling, the pc highjacking of language and the erasure of history. With a soundscape of rock ‘n roll culled from the past 60 years and live-mixed by Arcade’s long-time collaborator Steve Zehentner, Arcade sings and riffs, her fearless, often prescient critique of our reality.
Livestream tickets for both shows are $20 each and can be purchased at www.pangeanyc.com.
