"Fab-YULE-ous" An EmpeROAR Fabulous!!! Christmas Special
Fab-YULE-ous!!!: An EmpeROAR Fabulous!!! Christmas Special joined by acclaimed pianoman Victor Janusz.
A mad-cap musical party with this Award-Winning Cabaret Performer full of original holiday music, cracked-up carols, buoyant banter, and metric butt tons of zany yuletide cheer in the plush cozy Grand Piano Room of Gilda's Club Seattle. Original music and script by EmpeROAR Fabulous!!!, Musical Direction by Victor Janusz
It's that time of year. You frantically toil searching for the perfect gifts (you can afford) for your loved ones, struggle to figure out how you'll fit that much in the oven, and scrape your brain to recall how to deflect each of your family member's neuroses. Amidst the hustle and bustle, familiar tunes waft in your ear to thaw your frozen little heart. You invite them in, and a gaggle of seasonal songs you've never seen come trampling through the door. It's a party now. New and old friends gathered together, sharing their tidings of joy, advent adventures, and wacky woes.
Hosted by EmpeROAR Fabulous!!!, this mad-cap party welcomes you no matter how you feel about that Jesus bloke, as long as you're a sucker for ridiculous rambling yule-tide tales, sleigh bells and similarly seasonal sonic sensations , and the scent of pine. Come along for the ride as EmpeROAR Fabulous!!! and Victor Janusz take you on the up and downs, the ins and outs, the joys and the frustrations of the season. There will be songs old and new, burlesque, games, and a few surprises. So have a seat on the couch, buckle up and see why Seattle Gay News says "He puts on one hell of a show, which he's proven time and time again, he's quite capable of doing."
Partial Proceeds from this Show benefit GILDAS CLUB/Seattle, a non-profit organization. All services and activities for families facing cancer are kept 100% free-of-charge, due to the support of donations!
EmpeROAR FABULOUS!!! is a vocalist, songwriter, burlesque performer, and emcee. His whip clever and tongue in cheek songs are carried on vocals with a wide range, and delivery spanning sweet to gruff to flamboyantly cartoonish. As an emcee, his trademark is ridiculous narratives that turn tangents into points, line by line. As burlesque performer, his camp and sass have girded him with trophies and sashes from near and not-quite-so-near, television appearances (America's Got Talent), and has made him a flaming figure of the festival circuit, who'll fire your fuse and explode your senses. His exclamations will leave you marked!
VICTOR JANUSZ is one of the Northwest's most in-demand Entertainers. Last season at ACT, he penned and performed his own "HANDS SOLO: Pianoman" Show (directed by Lori Larsen) which was critically-acclaimed and sold out an exclusive 2-week run. Victor has just released a brand new CD "Living In A Blue State" with his full VJ BAND, including drummer STEVE WHITE (of Blue Man Group) Rob Witmer, Billy Joe Huels, Angie Louise, and Saxman Mark Taylor, among others. Victor is most at home... Anywhere!--So long as he's playing or singing at a piano, preferring original tunes, jazz, classic rock and Carpenters' songs. He's performed many times at ACT, the Space Needle, Canlis, Nordstrom... even a Command performance for President-elect Obama. If he's in a good mood, he'll tell jokes, and if in a really, really good mood --may take requests!
