TWO SHOWS COMING UP IN NEW YORK!

FIRST - I am doing my one woman show at the METROPOLITAN ROOM in NYC on the 26^th of this month - July. at 7:30 in the evening (one night only) I did this show last fall in DC, got great reviews like this one: "In her solo-show How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Sing the Song, Karen Black hopscotches through her unique and ultimately enduring career. Hitting highs and a few lows, Black keeps it breezy and fun, but Black saves the pathos for the songs she memorably makes her own throughout the show- be it Goodnight Irene, Me and Bobby McGee, Sondheim's Send in the Clowns or Bowie's Time, the intelligent actress with a surprisingly strong voice is beyond committed to each number. Whether rehashing her past or interpreting musical faves, Black is a first-rate, astonishingly accessible storyteller whose show makes for a marvelous, inspiring evening. - Patrick Folliard, The Washington Blade
