Uncanny celebrity impersonator Jason CoZmo performs as music legend Dolly Parton.
Sunday, October 18 at Laurie Beechman Theatre
Celebrity impersonator Jason CoZmo returns as Dolly Parton in "Coat of Many Colors," playing a special brunch performance the Laurie Beechman Theatre (407 West 42 Street, New York) on Sunday, October 18 at 1:00 PM. CoZmo recreates an intimate, authentic live Dolly Parton performance, lipsynching to many of Dolly's original hits and stage monologues. He is so convincing that in 2011 Dolly Parton herself was shown Jason's photo on Good Morning America and thought it was actually a photo of her. Tickets are $20 and are available at www.SpinCycleNYC.com or by calling 212-352-3101. There is a $20 food/beverage minimum at this venue, with a full brunch menu and full bar available.
Jason CoZmo performs all over the USA and makes his living as a female celebrity impersonator for the past 15 years. Some of his most popular impersonations include Liza Minnelli, Lucille Ball, Marilyn Monroe, and Julie Andrews. But Dolly Parton has become his 9 to 5! Growing up in Salt Lake City Utah doing musical theatre, then off to California where he performed at Disneyland, and continued theatre as well as film. He hit the ground running when he moved to NYC in 2005, performing in all the posh clubs, cabarets, summers on Fire Island. Dolly soon became his staple as he was cast in professional Impersonation shows in Bermuda, Lake Tahoe, Atlantic City and NYC. When asked why he put this show together, Jason said "It's a very personal project. Dolly, being who she is and what she stands for are "Gospel" to me. Not only outspoken, and over the top in her look and humor, but most importantly she has been a front runner for Diversity, Equality, Spirituality, and Love! These are all things that I stand for as well."
