Comedy, music, photography (and Dharma) at the Tavern

Posted

FORESTBURGH, NY — This weekend the Forestburgh Tavern will feature two nights of entertainment, starting on Friday, September 18 with a concert by Patti Sunshine Grecco and an opening for an exhibit of photographs by TRR’s Jonathan Fox titled “Fall Foliage Fantasy.” Proceeds from the concert go to Catskill Animal Rescue (and yes, Dharma the Wonder Dog will be there).

Sunshine got her start on many of the grand stages of the Borscht Belt such as the Concord, Kutchers, Raleigh, Pines, Nevele, etc. She has performed at venues in Las Vegas and Atlantic City, and was a favorite opening act for Red Buttons and Rich Little.

Fox, who in addition to sharing the spotlight with her that evening writes reviews for TRR, wrote, “Patti has the rare ability to hold an audience in the palm of her hand, breathlessly anticipating every note, as she exudes superstar talent with each song, whispering one moment, while raising the roof the next.” Tickets cost $20 in advance, $25 at the door.

Saturday night will be comedy night, headlined by Marion Grodin of “The View” and “Conan,” along with Rich Kiamco (Howard Stern, Boston Comedy Festival), hosted by Jonathan McBride (Stress Factory). The show starts at 8 p.m., and tickets cost $25. There is no drink minimum.
