Premieres May 21st and 22nd, 2010 at Joe’s Pub in NYC


Description


While praising Taylor Mac for his ukulele-playing and gender-bending performances, over 20 international publications have, of their own volition, described Mac as, "Ziggy Stardust meets Tiny Tim." Being a queen who can take a hint, he has decided to write and perform an original conversation about comparison, while singing Tiny Tim songs and the entire Ziggy Stardust album. It promises to be a concert unlike any other.

Comparison Is Violence or The Ziggy Stardust Meets Tiny Tim Songbook

Reviews

“Comparison Is Violence Or The Ziggy Stardust Meets Tiny Tim Songbook may sound ludicrous, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t brilliant, or that its vibrant star isn’t an all-out genius.”  5 stars -- Herald (Ireland)

“With scattershot brilliance he uses his many talents to get us to listen, think and feel. The effect is heartening, vital and liberating.”  5 Stars -- The London Times

“He puts his own, highly individual stamp on the Bowie songs and takes Starman, Lady Stardust, Rock’n’Roll Suicide and Suffragette City into another mind-blowing dimension.” 5 stars -- The Herald Scotland
