NIGHT OF 1000 STEVIES, New York City's legendary STEVIE NICKS homage, returns for its nineteenth annual edition on May 1 at THE HIGHLINE BALLROOM. NOTS 19: SONGS OF RHIANNON will be a May Day marathon of twirling and enchantment, produced by the JACKIE FACTORY NYC. This year's theme - and the centerpiece of the show - are the ten "SONGS OF RHIANNON" penned by STEVIE NICKS in her BUCKINGHAM NICKS days. In stage decor, visuals and costuming, NOTS 19 pays homage to the Celtic white witch RHIANNON - fitting for a date that is both MAY DAY and BELTANE.
The bill for this year's show is now closed, with twenty-five show segments featuring both the timeless stars and new discoveries that make "The Night" so special. Returning Legends of Stevie Realness include NYC Dragstars (and Project Runway supermodels) SHERRY VINE and SWEETIE, perennial NOTS divas THE HO-HOs (CATHY CERVENKA and JILL PANGALLO), AMBER GARBO (Las Vegas), GYPSY WILDE, NOTS 19 cover girl JAZMEN FLOWERS (Mississippi), BILLY O, MISS GUY and GOON SQUAD, CHARLENE CORAN (Colorado), HEATHER LITTEER (aka JESSICA RABBIT DOMINATION), LIZZIE DAVIS (Texas), THE DIVINE GRACE, THE PIXIE HARLOTS, TIFFANEY (of MIRROR IN THE SKY), AMBER RAY, DARLINDA JUST DARLINDA, MISS KELLY WEBB and ADAM JOSEPH. Show producers CHI CHI VALENTI and HATTIE HATHAWAY will again serve as "Enchantresses of Ceremony" and all-Stevie/Fleetwood DJs CRAIG SPENCER, SAMMY JO and POISON EVE will keep the dancefloor Hopelessly Enchanted between show sets.
The producers are delighted to announce this year's new performers and participants, beginning with NYC Ballet icon and teacher JOCK SOTO, who will choreograph the show's opening number. The other 2009 debuts at SONGS OF RHIANNON are theater artist TAYLOR MAC, aerialist BELLA LUNA, dance music diva MYNDY K, singer-songwriter COREY TUT with PATTY BRUCE, darkwave princess LADY ZOMBIE, underground crooner ADAM DUGAS with harpist MIA THEODORATUS and Drag King BILLY MOTION as LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM. NOTS 19 also welcomes WARNER BROTHERS RECORDS, who are donating souvenirs from the new STEVIE NICKS "LIVE IN CHICAGO" DVD and "THE SOUNDSTAGE SESSIONS" CD - both due out on March 31.
