After a nearly two-decade absence, a glamorous dose of the legendary Lypsinka, John Epperson's iconic creation, will be doled out this August when Lypsinka triumphantly returns to dazzle Ptown theatre-goers with the acclaimed "Lypsinka! The Boxed Set," directed by Kevin Malony. This award-winning revue of Lyp's greatest bits has toured the world, flabbergasting audiences from Los Angeles to Glasgow to Sydney. Using a soundtrack created from films, musicals, and concert recordings, the supreme archivist of irony showcases the modern challenge of being overly-blessed with femininity, ego and celebrity.
John Epperson was born in Hazlehurst, Mississippi, a long way from the exciting worlds in which Lypsinka travels: movies ("Witch Hunt" with Dennis Hopper, Darren Aronofsky's "Black Swan," "Wigstock: The Movie," "Angels In America," "Kinsey," "Another Gay Movie," "Another Gay Sequel"); television (HBO specials "Sandra After Dark" with Sandra Bernhard, and "Dragtime"; George Michael's video "Too Funky," PBS's "The United States Of Poetr"y and special features on the "Mommie Dearest" and "Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?" DVDs); fashion (appearing in the Paris, Tokyo and Los Angeles shows of haute couture designer Thierry Mugler, modeling for Valentino, Pauline Trigere, Barneys New York, and launching lines of cosmetics for Prescriptives, MAC, and Isabella Rossellini); advertisements (The Gap, LA Eyeworks, Naya Spring Water, Ilford Film); theater, including" I Could Go On Lip-Synching!," "The Fabulous Lypsinka Show," "Lypsinka! Now It Can Be Lip-Synched," "Lypsinka! A Day In The Lif"e (New York Theater Workshop, two Drama Desk nominations, including Most Unique Theatrical Experience; revived in 1993 Off Broadway at The Cherry Lane Theatre), "Lypsinka! As I Lay Lip-Synching,, "Lypsinka Must Be Destroyed!," "Lypsinka IS Harriet Craig!," "Lypsinka! The Boxed Set."
