VELVET, THE SHOW
Velvet is a nightclub and a state of mind – a fantasy. Inspired by Studio 54, a club famous for its wild parties and hedonism but also for its culture of acceptance – blind to color, creed, class, gender, size, shape, sexuality. Velvet is a celebration of that freedom. It is a party, it’s dangerous, it’s electrifying, and it’s exhilarating disco soundtrack never lets up from the opening moment. Each performance invites the audience into an intoxicating glitter ball world where the performers and the audience walk the fine line between the romantic and the audacious. ‘VELVET’ is a fantastic sensory overload – funky, fresh, fun and sexy.

MALE VOCALISTS/COUNTRY MIKE: 20s-30s. ALL ETHNICITIES. Male. 5'10-6'2 VELVET: An endearing young man drawn into the glamorous world that is Velvet. He is the agent of change in the piece.

Vocal Range: Tenor with the ability to sing lead vocals, duets, and harmonies. Pop sensibility with flexibility in disco and soul genres plus some backing vocals.

FEMALE VOCALISTS/THE SIRENS 20s-30s. ALL ETHNICITIES. Female. 5'4-5'9 VELVET: Two gorgeous, young women who lure Country Mike into Velvet and encourage him to head further into the night. Rarely off the stage, these “back-up singers” deliver a showstopper all by themselves midway throughout the night. Great Skill, huge workload. Vocal range: Alto-Soprano, with the ability to sing lead and background vocals including harmonies and potential to belt high solo numbers and vocal lines.
