The night after Live Aid, Freddie Mercury and Elton John ("Sharon and Melina"), meet for a coke fueled, raunchy game of bingo. Their night of epic debauchery and camaraderie is suddenly interrupted with the arrival of an equally coked out David Bowie, and tensions in their friendships will put all three to the test. But first of all and hopefully last, "THE HUMAN CONDITION IS ONE THAT REQUIRES A LITTLE ANESTHESIA!" A farce, somewhat based on truth, but mostly fictionalized. Sharon and Melina, or, A Fantastical Farce Founded in Semi-Falsities runs two hours plus intermission. Shows are 5/19, 5/21, 5/22, 5/26, 5/27, 5/29, and 5/30 at 7:00 PM | Freddie Mercury: Asher Kashani (he/they), Elton John: Riley Elton McCarthy (they/them), David Bowie: Hope Johansen, (she/her), Director: Sydney Dennison (she/her), Stage Manager & Freddie U/S: Neda Yeganeh (she/her), Assistant Director & Bowie U/S: Chloe Kramer (she/they), Elton U/S: Beck Farris (he/she/they), Assistant Stage Manager: Kylie Bragg (she/her), Playwright: Riley Elton McCarthy (they/them), Costume & Props Designer and Tech Director: Emily Yarmey (she/they), Sound Designer: Mark McKnight (he/him), *Please note that this performance will be presented at the Tank's in-person performance space at 312 W 36th St. All attendees and artists will be required to display proof of full covid vaccination before being admitted to the space, either by showing a vaccination record (vaccination card) at least two weeks out from the final dose of an approved vaccine, or by using New York's free Excelsior Pass service.
