JACKIE BEAT: FEAR OF INTIMACY
October 20 & 21 at The Cutting Room

"hostile, lewd, and riotously funny" -- Time Out

"Beat is a trained theater actress, but no amount of training could make a person this talented, this witty, or this scathing. The show should just be called 'Jackie Beat is a Fucking Genius.'" -The Village Voice

"a triple-shot barrage of twisted songs, barbed social commentary and all-around bad taste" - Staten Island Advance

People have often called Jackie Beat "fearless." But its not true. In JACKIE BEAT: FEAR OF INTIMACY, she finally divulges the awful truth about the one phobia she can't beat: intimacy. It is a fear that dooms her relationship with legions of adoring fans as well as a plethora of hopeful lovers. In this intimate new show, this classic love-hate relationship manifests itself in some delightfully crass new ditties, with ample stops along the way to sing about her favorite subjects. Warning: look, but don't touch.
