 A ROCKIN’ TRIBUTE TO THE KING!  Starring SCOT BRUCE     

 

Originally from the Pacific Northwest, where he was a radio personality and a drummer, Scot has lived in Los Angeles since 1990. While pursuing music and acting as a career (and having been a musician and big Elvis fan all of his life), he started doing a 1950’s era Elvis show as a way to survive the lean times. The result was a surprise to Scot…what was meant as a part-time “gig” to supplement his income, blossomed into a full time career! Because of his uncanny resemblance to the young “King” (and his ability to sing, strum a guitar, and swivel his hips), his live show has taken him across the U.S. and all over the world. As Elvis, he has appeared in music videos with Faith Hill and Sheryl Crow, and has been heard as the “Resident Elvis” with his pals “Mark and Brian” on their highly rated Los Angeles morning radio show. Scot has also appeared in recurring roles on the hit soap operas Days of Our Lives and The Bold and the Beautiful, a Pizza Hut commercial, the California Lottery “Elvis” ad campaign, and in several successful productions of Idols of the King, including the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, the Barter Theatre in Virginia and the Alabama Shakespeare Festival in Montgomery. Recently, he had the honor of performing with the legendary Jordanaires (Elvis’ original backup singers). If you saw the True Hollywood Story: Elvis in Hollywood on E! Entertainment Network, that was Scot playing Elvis in the recreation scenes. He performs at Disneyland on a regular basis, and tours with the ‘Legends of Rock & Roll – Buddy, Roy & Elvis.’

The Skivvies: Palm Springs Stripped! 

“Alt-cabaret, new burlesque: Whatever you call it, the jolly musical comedy of the Skivvies, a troupe of entertainers who perform in their underwear, joyfully rock.”- New York Times

Acclaimed undie-rock stars, THE SKIVVIES, head to the entertainment capital of the world for “PALM SPRINGS STRIPPED”! 

Special guests to be announced! 

Presented by The Purple Room in association with Chris Isaacson Presents

REVIEWS: 

“The Skivvies have managed to carve out a niche that we never knew needed to exist: It’s part Weird Al-parody and part sexy burlesque…an unusual explosion of satire and sultry.” – Out Magazine

“…Distinctive musical style, highly original…smart…sophisticated…ingenious…” – Wall Street Journal

Award-winning Broadway performers Lauren Molina and Nick Cearley return to The Smith Center with the most outrageous, feel good “undie-rock” concert of the year. This acclaimed duo of singer/musicians performs clever genre-hopping musical arrangements that showcase the artists’ soaring voices and tight harmonies – all with a minimalist dress code to reflect their stripped-down musical style! Expect ukulele, electric cello and an array of zany instruments. Plus, don’t miss special appearances by some Vegas Favorites, including “BAZ” star Ruby Lewis, “Vegas The Show” lead performer Savannah Smith, “Fantasy” headliner Lorena Peril, and more!

Rapidly building a widespread following, The Skivvies have performed in leading venues such as 54 Below, and have been featured in People Magazine, The New York Times, BuzzFeed, Time Out New York and Sports Illustrated. The band has shot pilots for A&E, FOX and WE.

Molina has made her mark on Broadway starring as the cello-playing Johanna in the critically acclaimed actor-musician revival of John Doyle’s “Sweeney Todd” starring Patti LuPone and Michael Cerveris. She went on to originate the role of Regina in the hit ‘80s rock musical “Rock of Ages” Off-Broadway, when it began at New World Stages and transferred with the production to Broadway.

Nick Cearley has performed in numerous smash productions, including the national Broadway tour of “All Shook Up” and Off-Broadway productions such as “Pageant – The Musical.”

“What do you get when you mix an internationally acclaimed impersonator, outrageous comedy, great standards and a bevy of icons? The hysterical parody of Judy Garland and her guests found in Michael Holmes’ riotous, “The Judy Show!” 
Encore Magazine

The spirit of Judy Garland is alive and well and in Palm Springs at the famed Purple Room Supper Club every Sunday at 7:00! This blend of hysterical comedy and outstanding music explode into an evening of nonstop belly laughs, glamour and high camp, as celebrated entertainer Michael Holmes parodies Judy Garland, who in her 1964 television variety show, played host to some of the greatest female icons of the Golden Age of Hollywood. With a killer wardrobe and razor-sharp wit, Holmes plays and nails them all, singing your favorite songs and thrilling the audience with charm, zingers and stories.

The Judy Show’s guests are always changing, so audiences never know who will surprise and delight them on stage on any given evening. Be on the lookout for Carol Channing, Mae West, Bette Davis, Katherine Hepburn, Pearl Bailey, Peggy Lee and Tallulah Bankhead, and of course, Holmes’ iconic interpretation of Judy Garland, all accompanied by Palm Springs’ celebrated pianist, Joel Baker.

As one of the most sought-after celebrity impressionists in the country, Holmes’ unique blend of outstanding vocals, dead-on impressions and outrageous humor leave audiences wanting more  and wanting to come back night after night to see who shows up on stage!

Based in Palm Springs, Holmes has established the award-winning The Judy Show as one of the longest-running and most popular cabaret shows in Southern California and regularly plays to sold-out houses throughout the US, Mexico and Europe.

“A raucous night of fun!” Palm Springs Life

“The exclamation point in The Judy Show! serves as apt punctuation for Michael Holmes’s high octane parody of Judy Garland’s eponymous 1963-64 CBS variety series.  His secret for keeping folks coming back week after week is his crisp wit and his improvisatory genius.  It is never the same show twice.” CabaretScenes Magazine
