Directed by Donna Drake, the 7 and 9 PM performances will feature musical direction by Ken Clifton. Special guest stars will include Bobby Daye, Aymee Garcia, Noah Rivera and Jennifer Simard. The New Fangled Variety Show, according to press notes, "takes the idea of a Variety show and spins it on its head! . . . You truly never know what will happen in this multi-media smash. Take a dash of Dean Martin, a pinch of Carol Burnett, a dabble of 'Laugh In' and a dose of 'Saturday Night Live,' shake vigorously and you'll get The New Fangled Variety Show starring John Tartaglia!"
Tartaglia was Tony-nominated for his performance in Broadway's Avenue Q and also appears on the Emmy-nominated "Johnny and the Sprites."
