Lip-Schtick is a one man quick-change stage show, during which David Scarbie Mitchell evolves through seven characters and eleven costume changes without EVER leaving the stage. The audience is able to see the whole process which is fast paced, set to music and sometimes hysterically “out of control.”
At its most basic description, LipSchtick presents the life stories of two main characters; Scarbie, an aging showgirl with a personality disorder, and David, who recounts his journey of growing up gay in a loving and supportive family environment.
The other character impersonations drift in and out the action adding comedy, song, and pathos to the poignant storytelling.
Lip Schtick is a one man tour-de-force suitable for all ages, lifestyles, genders and abilities.
VIP Tickets include a cocktail reception with the artist before the show!
Lip Schtick is certainly mostly comedy, inclucing lip-synch AND live vocals which blur the boundaries of reality as Scarbie changes character. Some audience members cannot distinguish which songs are actually sung live or are lip-synched due to Scarbie’s flawless technique and deliver.
