​DEC 2 Laurie Beechman Theatre: I'm Not Single, I'm Dating New York:
The holiday season can be tough for singles. Christmas parties, family dinners, the constant questions about if/who/why-aren't-you are dating someone. Big Thunder presents DATING NEW YORK, a concert cabaret of fresh pop and beautiful contemporary jazz music by new composers about the love (and hate) for dating in NYC, sung by an intoxicating array of NYC's hottest Singles. I Push Up my Glasses, lyrics by Claire Tran, music by Nikko Benson, will be a part of this irrestistable lineup.
