So Unusual! A Celebration Of Cyndi Lauper

A Long-time Dream, realized at last!

I was an 80s kid, and I grew up with Cyndi Lauper all over my television, in my magazines, and in the posters that covered my bedroom walls. She’s always been a hero of mine, not only for her incredible vocal prowess, but for her fierce commitment to individuality, self-expression, and using the power of your voice for good.

When I was brainstorming for ideas for one-woman tribute shows, Cyndi’s name was at the top of my list!

And I’ve put together not only some of her most iconic songs, but some personal stories about both Cyndi and me that I think you’ll absolutely love.

Even more alike Than I knew!

Doing a deep dive of Cyndi was such a joy, and I discovered she and I had even more in common than I realized! Not only do we both love a great eye makeup moment and revel in the joy of maximalist accessorizing, but she also, like me, loves to climb all over the stage and get as close to the actual rafters as possible while she sings! We also both love a good long sleep before our shows. As in, all day long!

And you’ll hear even more about it, as well as some of the best pop songs ever written, in this fun and heartwarming tribute.

Bring Cyndi (And Me) to You!

Want to see So Unusual! In your town? I’d love to bring it to you! So Unusual is the first of many touring one-woman shows that I’m launching in the coming year and beyond.

Approx. runtime is 45 minutes, appropriate for ages 13+
