About this Event

Tony Award-winning star of stage and screen John Cameron Mitchell (Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Shortbus, How to Talk to Girls At Parties), one of alt-culture’s boldest creators, brings an exclusive evening of hilarious, poignant songs and stories from his unparalleled career spanning off-Broadway, Broadway, and beyond.

  • Created & Performed by John Cameron Mitchell
  • Guitar by Sean Liljequist
  • Produced by ArKtype / Thomas O. Kriegsmann and Sami Pyne

This performance is part of a series curated by Joseph Keckler, a musician, writer, and songwriter, known as one of New York’s most notorious performers. Applauded by the New York Times as a “major vocal talent with a range that shatters conventional boundaries… and a trickster’s dark wit,” he performs bizarrely heroic operatic arias that employ his astonishing vocal range to tell poignant, vulnerable, and incendiary stories. Joseph is also host of Joseph Keckler's Golden Hour at ArtYard, bringing together groundbreaking and original artists performing in an inviting variety show format.
