Susan Faucon's WAMMIE Award Winning Theatrical Jazz Project: KILLER STILTS
A little bit of theatre
A whole lot of music
A smidgeon of controversy
A belly full of laughter
And three crazy Dames
Liz Briones, Gia Mora and Susan Faucon are the Dames of Killer Stilts. These spectacular Divas sing, squabble and laugh out loud about Beauty, Money, Sex, Love and Conspiracy...lots of thought provoking, irreverent and musical conversation. With Ro Cube on Keys, Wardell Howell on Bass and Eric Haskins on Drums, these 6 accomplished musicians perform a diverse collection of original jazz, funk, blues and pop blended with provocative dialogue, a large dollop of humor and the meaning of life as seen through the eyes of three crazy dames.
Killer Stilts is a new project founded and written by musician and playwright, Susan Faucon. This new genre, coined by Faucon, Theatrical Jazz, is a blend of original music and scripted dialogue that incorporates the freedom of improvisation while focusing on relevant, social themes such as conformity, feminism, spirituality, justice, equality, competition, materialism, and most importantly, finding the authentic voice. Killer Stilts does not offer a story-line necessarily, it offers a line of ideas, a musical conversation between 3 women sharing about beauty, love, sex, conspiracy, conformity and what goes on in the minds of 21st century women.
Killer Stilts has some of the greatest musicianship Washington DC has to offer. Its players have performed individually and together at some of the best known venues in the Metropolitan area including and not limited to Strathmore Hall, Blues Alley, Signature Theatre, Germano's Cabaret, Bohemian Caverns, Twins Jazz, Rams Head, State Theatre, Kennedy Center, Madams Organ, Chesapeake Arts Center, York Theatre, Silver Spring Stage and Dreamwrights Theatre.
