VILLAIN: DEBLANKS – Up to Some Starry, Bi-Coastal Shenanigans
August 5, 2015
Villain: DeBlanks has (VERB)_____-ed both coasts in a week! Starring Emmy winners, Tony winners, and an array of the funniest people in show biz, these benefit shows have had audiences (and casts) literally breathless from laughing. Scroll down for photos from last night’s performance at 54 Below and last week’s show at Rockwell Table & Stage in Los Angeles!
The concert at 54 Below benefitted Broadway Cares/ Equity Fights AIDS and starred Tony-nominee Brenda Braxton (Smokey Joe’s Café, Chicago), Kingsley Leggs (Sister Act, The Color Purple), Angela Robinson (OWN Network’s The Haves and the Have Nots, The Color Purple), Trent Armand Kendall (Bat-Boy, Five Guys Named Moe – West End), Carly Hughes (Pippin, Chicago), and Bernard Dotson (Finian’s Rainbow, Chicago).
Proceeds from the performance at Rockwell Table & Stage went to the ASPCA. The evening featured six-time Emmy-winner Bruce Vilanch (Get Bruce!, Hollywood Squares), hilariously versatile Lori Alan (Pixars’s Inside Out, Family Guy), NCIS: Los Angeles’ Barrett Foa (Buyer & Cellar, Avenue Q), Tony-winning funny lady Annaleigh Ashford (Masters of Sex, Kinky Boots), omnipresent voice artist/actor Robin Atkin Downes (How to Train Your Dragon, The Strain), and keenly clever Tony-winner Daisy Eagan (The Secret Garden, Sunday Brunch of Shame).
