Join us for a fun night of laughter and song
After over two years of COVID, I was thrilled to bring a new Make America Laugh and Sing Again! show back to support Pangea, the marvelous alt-cabaret club in the East Village, back in May. Now we're back by popular demand on July 19th, 2022.
In May, we had a full house of laughter, song, cheers and applause! It was a very special evening of hilarity and song with the charming chanteuse Mariah Bonner, composer, singer, and pianist Marcus Dagan, raconteur Robin Hirsch, composer, songwriter and pianist Ellen Mandel, songwriter and guitarist T Spoon Phillips, and comic storyteller and emcee Lisa Faith Phillips.
We look forward to seeing you at our next show!

About the 2020 Make America Laugh and Sing Again!
How it came to be
In December 2020 writer/performer/producer Lisa Faith Phillips wanted to bring people together to celebrate the joy of laughter and song to lift spirits against the grim daily onslaught of the political news. So, she asked her talented friends to get together and put on a show. Everyone said "Yes!" The result was MAKE AMERICA LAUGH AND SING AGAIN!
On February 27, 2020, everyone came together for a sold-out "wildly entertaining" evening of hilarity and song to benefit CommonCause.org at Pangea, the East Village Alt-Cabaret Supper Club.
What a great night it was. With the sold-out house, we raised money for a good cause and enjoyed a wonderful evening.
It was such a success we were planning to do a monthly MAKE AMERICA LAUGH AND SING AGAIN show bringing in new performers and raising money to get people out for the 2020 election. But then Covid hit, and NYC locked down on March 15, 2020.
We give big thank you to the performers who donated their time and talent to make it such a marvelous show: the hilarious Stan Baker, the charming chanteuse Mariah Bonner, legendary musician/songwriter/writer Michael Lydon, uber-talented composer and pianist Ellen Mandel, and the comic writer, producer, and emcee Lisa Faith Phillips. The marvelous singer/songwriter/actress Natalie Smith was scheduled to perform, but she was held up shooting Law and Order SUV.
Thank you, Jon Waldman, for the excellent stills and video of the show!
Join us to keep MAKE AMERICA LAUGHING AND SINGING! Now it's needed more than ever!
