The concert is a fundraising effort for First Metropolitan Community Church. Presented in part by the Liberty Press, proceeds will go toward a new building for the church’s food pantry, Loaves & Fishes.

In Electile Dysfunction: The Kinsey Sicks for President, the Dragapella® divas present their views on pressing political issues such as education, immigration, unemployment, scandal and corruption – and all in glorious four-part harmony.

Their original songs and brilliant re-imaginings of classics include such numbers as “Sell the Poor,” “Eliminate the Schools,” and their campaign anthem, “Vote for Me (I’m Not From Kenya).”

THE KINSEY SICKS have been combining razor-sharp political satire with brilliant musicianship for eighteen years. They have performed Off-Broadway, done an extended run in Las Vegas, and tour full time worldwide.

Combining rich, four-part harmony, biting satire and over-the-top drag, THE KINSEY SICKS have performed in 41 states, Mexico, Canada, Europe and Australia.

They starred in their own Off-Broadway show at New York’s Studio 54 and are the subject of two feature films.

A special rate at the Hotel at WaterWalk is available. Call (316) 263-1061 for reservations.

Date Recorded: 9/12/2012
