PLEASE

Overview

“Special gem of a multi-hyphenate comedian”*
Gabi Shiner performs songs based on the work of legendary groups, like the Pussycat Dolls and the nuclear family. “Completely hilarious and very neurotic,” this musical survey of bourgeois culture asks who and how we aim to please. Basically it’s the most memorable piano recital you’ll ever go to.
