An all-new show

The All-Nude, College-Girl Revue, or why I can't pass the vetting.

New show coming up at Cornelia Street Cafe Downstairs on Monday, October 26, 2009, see details below:

Sued for her last show funny parody self-help musical about mistresses by the FranklinCovey Corporation, owners of 7 Habits of Highly Effective People - imagine her title and add a 1/2 - (she'll be back with a new version: Dr Faith's Bad Girl's Guide to Mistressing) Lisa Faith has been wor

king on a whole new show. As her friends talked about helping their country and going to work for the Obama administration, Faith realized she could never pass the vetting. There was the summer job working as a stripper to put herself through graduate school at the London School of Economics, her phone sex job, the arrests, the recent lawsuit about her last show, she'd be lucky if she didn't end up at gitmo. Raised in Ohio in a test site for cable television, Lisa Faith was bred to be a couch potato, but she knew that there had to be something more. Outrageous, poignant and laugh-out-loud funny, follow her journey from Findlay, Ohio through the Combat Zone, Penthouse, jail and the legal system for an evening of hilarious, sophisticated entertainment.

Praise for previous show

A close comparison to Goldie Hawn I thought, this performer was outrageously funny and successfully cunning. Intuitive and devilishly clever…Every line demanded a boisterous laugh. She exudes inherent fun like a bottle of champagne. Uplifting and unpredictable, Lisa Faith Phillips should have delivered the damn State of the Union Address this year. - Carolyn Smith, Newyorkcool.com

With a riding crop in one hand, and a feather boa in the other, Dr. Faith lectures, satirizes and sings her way into our psyche. In her charismatic way, Dr. Faith engages the audience with her witticisms and quips, citing current events. Her take on the “axis of evil” suggests a double entendre worthy of exploring! A semi-psychotic break later in the show leads into a hysterical, over the top Broadway tunes tribute. Highlighting other steps, Dr. Faith delivers lovely songs of love & belonging. The audience surrenders to her charm in the number “Let’s Just Keep Falling in Love”. Visit Dr. Faith for a session. Learning to be a mistress has never been more entertaining or effective! - Andrew Gilchrist, MNN Cable Network

Lisa Faith Phillips has been a Participating Artist at The Cherry Lane Theater, Alice’s Fourth Floor and Manhattan Punch Line’s Comedy Corps in New York as well as a member of theater companies in London, Barcelona and Findlay, Ohio. Her favorite parts range from Wendy in Peter Pan to Lucky in Waiting for Godot.

She has performed stand-up and one-woman shows at such venues as The Comic Strip, The Improv, The Duplex and Don’t Tell Mama. She sang with the Time Warner Choir for four years. She wrote and performed for Ohio television and appeared on Lifetime, The Leeza Show on ABC and in the Beast of Burden music video, featuring Bette Midler and Mick Jagger.

Her last play, The All-Nude College-Girl Revue, had a sold-out run at Soho's Synchronicity Space before moving to The Samuel Beckett Theater for an extended run in 1997. (Since the economics of producing plays with seven characters makes it difficult to stage this play, Lisa is recylcling the title for her new one-woman show.) Her first play At All Times, initially produced at Alice's Fourth Floor, went on to open the Director's Project Festival at Synchronicity Space in 1994.

Lisa has a degree in Economics and French from Wellesley College and a Master in Economics from the London School of Economics. She has been studying music theory at Julliard. She has worked extensively in publishing and web development, at Time Warner and Random House and is currently VP of Products and Services at NOLOH LLC, (Not one lineof HTML), and exciting new web development company.

Her plays, including At All Times, www.atalltimes.net, and All-Nude,College-Girl Revue,www.allnudecollegegirlrevue.com, and most recently the tour of her self-help parody show, which had to be renamed after being sued by Franklincovey, Dr Faith's Bad Girl's Guide to Mistressing sold-out in Dublin, Ireland, in New York and at the Capital Fringe Fesitival in Washington, DC.
