Show Description
OUR HIT PARADE is a live top-ten countdown show created by Tony nominee and Obie winner Kenny Mellman (Kiki & Herb), carnal chanteuse Bridget Everett (At Least It's Pink at Ars Nova), pop song opera impresario Neal Medlyn (Neal Medlyn's Unpronounceable Symbol at P.S. 122), producer and MTV cameraman Brendan Kennedy, and writers Ada Calhoun and Peter Schjeldahl.
The show is inspired by the musical sketch series Your Hit Parade that ran on radio and then television from 1935 to 1959. On that show, cast members performed the week's most popular songs as comically literal skits. In this show, the hosts and special guest stars from the local performance scene present their renditions of current popular hits live on stage!
Rotating guests include: Billy Eichner, Molly Pope, Lady Rizo, Randy Harrison, Jenn Harris, Murray Hill, Sherry Vine, Corn Mo, The Wau Wau Sisters, and many more…
January 27th performers include: Mary Testa, Kathleen Hanna (le tigre), Trapper Felides, Molly Pope, NA+AN, Cole Escola, Amber Martin AND a super vocal-group with Adam Horovitz (The Beastie Boys), Carmine Covelli, Pailo Heitz and Eytan Mirsky!!!!
A one-year New York Magazine subscription, a $9.97 value, will be included with your ticket purchase for this show! Feel free to click here for more information.

So, she makes me laugh. So, she can take off her dress and do a concert in her bra and panties without blinking an eye.
BUT...she does that and still belts out an incredibly moving and powerful tune. She's an all-around amazing performer.
So one of the things I like best about Bridget...

is the way she balances an incredibly vulgar and punkasfuck stage persona with sweetness and vulnerability. Millie Jackson strikes me as an absolutely natural and inspired choice for her and Kenny to base a show around; Jackson's songbook allows for so much riffing and emotion. I get the feeling that I'm gonna be seeing this twice, at least.
