NIGHT OF 1000 STEVIES - the largest and most beloved STEVIE NICKS fan event in the world - returns to New York City's IRVING PLAZA on May 1 for its twenty-fifth annual edition. This marathon evening - produced by THE JACKIE FACTORY - is one of those great New York City spectacles that spark travel from all around the globe. The title of this milestone edition and retrospective - TIMELESS - describes both The Goddess Nicks and the show at its quarter-century mark.
Our bill is still in formation, but we have so much news already. Many of the 25th year cast have been invited to reprise one of their most iconic performances from past editions. These rare highlights will include VANGELINE THEATER's breathtaking BEAUTY AND THE BEAST butoh ballet, the epic RED ROCKS STAND BACK homage from THE HO-HOS (CATHY CERVENKA and JILL PANGALLO) and a half-dozen more. Other "Returning Legends of Stevie Realness" at this writing are longtime crowd favorites SHERRY VINE, JAZMEN FLOWERS (Mississipi), AMBER MARTIN, MACHINE DAZZLE, HEATHER LITTEER, ST. EVE, JOHNNY QUINLAN, DARRELL THORNE, and POISON EVE. Our newer arrivals from the past five years are THE RACHEL KLEIN THEATRE, XAVIER and BRIDGET BARKAN, DARLINDA JUST DARLINDA and FLEETWOOD MAXX featuring SLEVY NICKS.
This year's debut performers and ensembles will include WHAT TIME IS IT, MR. FOX? (BOSTON) fronted by 3RIAN KING (they describe their sound as "smoky cabaret, neo-soul and acoustic noir"), Brooklyn-based experimental rock band IT WAS ROMANCE and its Stevie Princess LANE MOORE, and BATH SALTS nightlife creatrix SEVERELY MAME. Show founder CHI CHI VALENTI returns to preside along with her fellow ENCHANTRESSES OF CEREMONY including HATTIE HATHAWAY and EDITRIX ABBY and this year's superstar DJ crew includes SAMMY JO, founding producer JOHNNY DYNELL, CRAIG SPENCER and VJ TRE (D.C.) who opens the evening with a marvelous hour of his rare multimedia and mixes.
