Both shows are at 8 PM. Tickets are $20 and are available at the door. Belt Theatre is at 336 W. 37th Street. Poncho's members include Cary Shields on lead vocals and guitar, Mark Jackson on lead vocals and keyboards, George Farmer on bass and Gintas Janusnis on drums.

Poncho recently performed as part of the lineup of Rockin' at the Zipper — two sold-out concerts that recently played at the Belt's sister theatre, The Zipper, during Euan Morton's week-long engagement. Rockin' at the Zipper reunited Shields with Taboo castmates Morton, Denise Summerford, Brooke Elliott and Jeffrey Carlson. Poncho also made their New York debut back in July at Joe's Pub.

Shields and Jackson, who met while performing in Rent, are currently writing a new musical, Lucky, together. The show is expected to workshop in 2005.
