EXCLUSIVE: Lisa Loeb Talks Off-Broadway Premiere of New Kids Musical ‘Camp Kappawanna,’ at Atlantic Theater Company (March 21-April 12)
It's been more than two decades since we first heard from Lisa Loeb. And while I need not mention that certain song of hers by name, if you still see Mrs. Loeb as that impossibly twee twentysomething in those tortoiseshell frames pining at the center of Ethan Hawke's continuous shot, well, you're only hearing what you want to. Nine more stories later, Lisa Loeb's become a bona fide polymath. Singer, songwriter, child lit author, burgeoning eyewear magnate, two-time reality TV star (on two different networks, no less), as a mother of two, too, she's proof that you can indeed have it all. Latest case in newest point: Loeb's musical, 'Camp Kappawanna.' PHOTOS: New York Doll David Johansen Gets Café Carlyle Hot, Bothered as Buster Poindexter
Back at Café Caryle for a second fab run, David Johansen-cum-Buster Poindexter crooned threw a most curious selection of tunes, including Fats Waller's "You're a Viper," Jive Bomb's "Bad Boy" and, of course, Arrow's "Hot Hot Hot"--replete with his very own two-person congo line (i.e. himself and his wife). Finishing up with an encore of "Heart of Gold" by Peter de Vries and the All Star Band, the evening's kitchen sink vibe--calypso, plenty of pompadour, even Cowboy from the Village People--was worth the trek uptown. Have a look-see at three of our fave pics...
