If you are in the Los Angeles area between now and December 13, 2009, please so see the f–king fantastic collaboration between puppeteer Basil Twist and New York Drag Legend Joey Arias.  The show is called Arias With A Twist and it’s so great, when it was playing in New York last year, I saw it 5 times!

You’ll hear Joey singing songs from the Beatles to Billie Holliday and from Led Zeppelin to Klaus Nomi.  It’s such a great show.  You can read more here (and at the bottom of the article is a link to get tickets).  If you want to see what New York is really about, this is the must see show of the year.

See a picture of Joey and I sharing a kiss backstage after the jump.

Happy Birthday Basil Twist!

The incredibly talented puppeteer Basil Twist is celebrating his birthday today. We at According2G.com would like to wish him a fabulous birthday. Though he is most notibly recognized for “Symphonie Fantastique,” an under-water puppet show, I was first exposed to his genius in last years’ “Arias With A Twist,” starring famous drag star Joey Arias. The show was so great, I saw it 5 times! You can read more about Basil on his official website.
