Garden City, NY (04/06/2023) — Designer, entertainer, writer, and producer Isaac Mizrahi brings his all-new critically-acclaimed cabaret show to the Adelphi University Performing Arts Center (PAC) on Saturday, April 22 at 8 p.m. Fresh off his Broadway debut in Chicago and his sold-out annual two-week residency at the legendary Cafe Carlyle, Mizrahi will share stories and songs from his more than 30 years in the entertainment industry. Mizrahi will be accompanied by his jazz band led by Ben Waltzer.

Mizrahi sings a range of tunes from the Great American Songbook classics to contemporary standards. Expect him to share his hilarious musings on everything of the moment from politics to dieting to his latest Instagram obsessions. The New York Times hails Mizrahi's cabaret show as, "raucously funny" and praised him as, "a founding father of a genre that fuses performance art, music and stand-up comedy."

His work in the entertainment industry includes being subject and co-creator of "Unzipped", a documentary following the making of his Fall 1994 collection which received an award at the Sundance Film Festival. He hosted his own television talk show, "The Isaac Mizrahi Show", for seven years. He has written two books and has made countless appearances in movies and on television. He served as a judge on "Project Runway: All-Stars". Mizrahi's production company, Isaac Mizrahi Entertainment, has several projects in development in television, theatre, and literature.
