Entitled MÉNAGE – Have Gown. Will Travel, the three-person revue will feature the talents of Nixon as well as Edd Clark and Sarah Rice (Sweeney Todd, Candide). Show times at the Manhattan venue are Jan. 18, 2009 at 4 PM and Jan. 21, 22 and 24 at 7:30 PM. The evening of song, according to press notes, celebrates "life, love, and the slings and arrows of the outrageousness of relationships.
