Performing Friday Night in Brooklyn with Neoray

This Friday I’m performing with the band Neoray in Park Slope Brooklyn at The Fifth Estate at 8 PM. Neoray is a combination of the austere vocals of Christy and eclectic electronic layers. The songs about imagined characters of Brooklyn and Manhattan, absurdest lust, supernatural menage a trios and aristocratic space travelers. Formed in 2011, Neoray uses analog pianos as a base to their sound, with Singleton grafting her sometimes chilling lyrics into the mix.

Rose LIve

Happy new year to everyone.  The rest of this month became booked rather quickly with performance work.

Playing percussion for the Fringe NYC 2008 run of Green Eyes opening this Saturday

Green Eyes The MusicalGood evening everyone.  This Saturday, the Fringe NYC 2008 run of Green Eyes opens at Theater 80 in the East Village of Manhattan.  I will be playing percussion (drum kit) under the musical direction of Matt Hinkley.  It’s billed as a “musical” but it’s really not.  Consider it an acoustic-rock show with a story line.

A contemporary love story, Green Eyes tracks the rise and fall of a relationship over time through folk-rock music and modern dance. The new musical utilizes two singers, two dancers, and a five-piece orchestra to fuse both song and dance, shedding new light on the traditional “boy meets girl” story.

Green Eyes The Musical DanceDiana Glazer, in association with Steve Tate and Leopold Group, are proud to present Green Eyes as part of the 11th Annual New York International Fringe Festival and will be showing for five dates beginning August 16, 2008.

Directed by Jessica Redish** who recently created the musical staging for the Lortel Award-winning Adding Machinegreen eyes has been described by North Shore Chicago Magazine as “a multi-media musical for the John Mayer generation.”

Purchase tickets, listen to past recordings and get more background of the show at the Green Eyes website.

Performed last night with Les Funky Bitches Fantastique and updates from The Concept Farm

For those of you that subscribe to my RSS feed you’ll know that I did not post anything about my show last night with Les Funky Bitches Fantastique. A referral from Josh Landay who I performed Tock Tick with in February 2007 for Prospect Theater Company.  We performed the opening set of the night at The Annex.  There is unfortuntely not much online that is up to date regarding this project by Richard Caliban but you can can at least get some background at Richard’s site.

New Prospect musical opens Monday and two more Saturday afternoons with Suzanne Fiore

Honor: A New MusicalI will be playing percussion for the new Propsect Theater Company musical Honor. Opening this Monday, April 21st with previews starting tonight. Lyrics by Peter Mills (recipient of the 3rd annual Fred Ebb award last November) Book & music by Peter Mills and Cara Reichel Directed by Cara Reichel Musical direction by Dan Feyer April 19 – May 18, 2008 at the Hudson Guild Theatre, 441 West 26th Street. The theater might be hard to find for some. It’s closer to 10th Avenue and attached to the community center. Closest subway is the C or E to 23rd Street. Walk north on 8th Avenue to West 26th Street, then west to the theatre. Peter Mills and Cara Reichel have managed to do the near impossible. They have taken Shakespeare’s comic masterpiece, kept its Elizabethan spirit, voice and wit, yet created a new, accessible work that brashly and, at times, poignantly speaks to contemporary musical theater.” – The New York Times, on ILLYRIA, adapted from TWELFTH NIGHT

Two Performances With Spectre Box This Week In The East Village

Good afternoon, I first want to thank all of you that made it out to see The Rockae. There was some great press. (Check out my previous post for links!) The day after Rockae closed I was in the studio rehearsing for two shows I have this week with Spectre Box. The band consists of Dana Haynes on piano, Kent Thompson on guitar, Eric Day on bass and myself on drums. The music consists of some smart originals plus some great covers like Bjork’s Bachlorette and a folky version of Gnarls Barkley’s Crazy. Spectre Box is the pure, “from scratch” collaboration of those who live to hunt, conjure and spawn new theatre. A collage of Weimar cabaret, burlesque, dance, music, Lecoq, Feldenkrais, vaudeville, and, most of all, the gems and detritus of our collective imagination, Spectre Box spins out a haunting, taunting, darkly hilarious NYC of our dreams and nightmares. It is pitch black performance with tragic, comedic, beautiful, sexy women that may or may not be ghosts in this theatrical seance. Spectre Box is not a safe place to be, but you will want to come in. “Touched” is a choreographed happening; equal parts Weimar cabaret, rock ‘n roll, theatrical explosion and underground party. Spectre Box Presents Touched Uncle Ming’s 225 Avenue B, Second Floor (view Google Map) Thursday, October 18th and Friday October 19th Show starts 9PM Doors open at 8:30 PM $15 Buy tickets

New rock musical closes next week and welcome to my new site

Good afternoon, I can’t believe that it’s already October! My summer sure did go fast but I had a great time. Saw some great shows such as La Vie down at Spiegelworld and Rent with the original leads Anthony Rapp and Adam Pascal. And I had the chance to spend time with some of you. After Fitz & Walloughs closed I had a small break before my next show began. My daytime career reached a new milestone as I accepted the offer to become Interactive Director for the creative agency, The Concept Farm (more on that in another post). On September 15th, my sixth show with Prospect Theater opened, The Rockae. Pete Mills’ first musical that has received great reviews from The Village Voice, Theatermania, Talkin’ Broadway and Backstage. We have only 8 more shows left so please consider coming to check it out sometime either this weekend or next week. Tonight through the weekend then next Wednesday through Sunday with two shows on Saturday. And, I’ve finally been able to launch the new version of AlexanderRea.com.

And a sizzling one… with an erotic, go-for-broke urgency strong enough to make you want to join in the reveling yourself.” — Talkin’ Broadway “A sexy good time up until the inevitable bloody end… that leaves you in thrall to the rock ‘n’ roll god of wine and ecstasy.” –Backstage Cast
