Meet Our Masters of Ceremonies!

Posted by LPN - June 16, 2013 - Event

Mr. Eagle Asenio Amadis

Past Empress Witti Repartee

Leather balance feather: Meet our second Master (of Ceremonies!) for LPN XXX, the reigning Mr. Eagle Arsenio Amadis! Join Arsenio as he and Witti Repartee guide us through an evening of fundraising, fabulous auction items, amazing burlesque performances and loads of fun!

Witti Repartee has been called many things. “Hostess.” “Chanteuse.” “Fabulous.” “Woody.” Witti has been been entertaining crowds of two and three in some of the darkest, most out – of – the – way places her agent can find since 1997. You may not remember having seen her at Cherry’s or the Ice Palace, you may have forgotten her performances at Mother or Oscar Wilde, or you may have blocked those evenings when she’s dominated the piano at The Monster. Harder to forget are the year and a half she hosted “The Gayest Link” at Hannah’s Lava Lounge, or her reign in 2003 as the Queen of the New York City Gay Men’s Chorus, her numerous guest appearances at Will Clark’s Porno Bingo, or her recent reign as Empress of New York. She has produced, performed or appeared at over 500 events in New York City under the auspices of either the Imperial Court or the Gay Men’s Chorus and is currently working on her one woman show, “Witti Repartee: Falling in Love…Again.” Upcoming appearances include Will Clark’s Bad Boys on the Hudson (July 14), Homo Erectus (August 15) and as producer and host of ICNY’s 5th Annual Nobles Show at Stonewall (September 21).

Tickets available now at http://lpnxxx.brownpapertickets.com/ until midnight, Friday, June 21st!
