Three Good Friends & One Special Guest at the RBTA



TONIGHT, FRI. DEC. 19th AT THE RBTA:


Three Good Friends & One Special Guest at the RBTA
Doug James, Keith Mack, Ed Shockley and bassist Dennis Michaels perform at the Rehoboth Beach Theatre of the Arts with a Holiday Twist

If you loved Three Good Friends’ phenomenal show during the Autumn Jazz Fest, make room in your heart for one more as bassist Dennis Michaels joins the dynamic trio Three Good Friends on Friday, December 19th at 8:00 PM at the Rehoboth Beach Theatre of the Arts at 20 Baltimore Avenue.
Natives Shockley, Mack, and James are three of the most well known and accomplished musicians the Cape region has ever produced. All three grew up in the Lewes-Rehoboth area, where they performed locally. Over time, each moved to Manhattan to pursue their musical careers. Sand, however, being in their shoes, they never lost touch with home.

Ed Shockley led his own regionally-successful band, Jack of Diamonds, in the 80’s. They were featured on numerous TV shows - including the first live simulcast by MTV. His song, “Dodge City,” is still a ‘beach anthem’ to a generation of fans. Ed continued his career in New York as a singer and songwriter, scoring several record deals and appearing on stage and singing on numerous television and radio jingles.

Keith Mack was the lead guitarist and songwriter in the popular 80’s band Scandal, with whom he recorded Platinum and Gold Albums. Keith went on to record and tour with many internationally famous acts, including Paul Young and Joe Cocker - his performance with Cocker in Berlin the night the Berlin Wall came down is just one of his career highlights. Incidentally, Scandal is currently touring and soon to release a new CD.

Doug James is a BMI Award-winning song writer. His songs have been recorded by dozens of artists, ranging from Dionne Warwick to Michael Bolton to Barbara Mandrell - including “How Am I Supposed To Live Without You,” the 1990 BMI Song of the Year.

This exciting performance will feature songs written by each member over the span of their careers as well as a few twists on some Holiday favorites. Tickets for this special event are available for $20.

Nice Jewish Girls Gone Bad

In case you haven’t heard the news, “Nice Jewish Girls Gone Bad” is coming to the Rehoboth Beach Theatre of the Arts on Friday, December 12, at 8:00 PM! Nice Jewish Girls Gone Bad is a refreshing mix of comedy, music, spoken-word and show-stopping burlesque, featuring the gals who learned to smoke at Hebrew School, got drunk at their Bat Mitzvahs and would rather have more schtuppa than the chupah, featuring performers seen on Comedy Central, HBO and Late Night TV.

These badass chosen chicks boldly dare to deconstruct years of tradition, expectations and guilt in a fast-paced vaudeville extravaganza. “Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen” gets remixed, Tumbalaika gets a makeover and we all find out what’s in Gefilte Fish (think “Fear Factor” for Jews!)

This rendition of “Nice Jewish Girls Gone Bad” will feature comedians Ophira Eisenberg (Comedy Central), newcomer Mira Stroika and booty shakin’ by dance duo Sister Schmaltz. As always, the show is hosted by the queen of the quick change, The Goddess Perlman. (Last Comic Standing).

Nice Jewish Girls Gone Bad” has been spreading its own brand of “schmaltz nouveau” across the land to sold-out crowds in New York City, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Boston, Philadelphia, Providence, Miami, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Santa Cruz, Pittsburgh, Madison, Detroit, Montreal, Burlington, Provincetown, The Berkshires, The Hamptons and of course, The Catskills.
