Cynthia Hopkins (pictured), who garnered widespread acclaim for her amnesia operetta “Accidental Nostalgia,” returns to DUMBO’s St. Ann’s Warehouse on Wednesday with the New York premiere of her “Accidental” prequel, “Must Don’t Whip ’Um.”
Backed by her band Gloria Deluxe, Hopkins will perform the role of a failed ’70s pop star via a widely varied cycle of songs that she’s written and composed.
A featured show of the “Under the Radar 2007” festival, which promotes independent and experimental theater, “Must Don’t Whip ’Um” is a multi-media production that everyone will be talking about.
“Must Don’t Whip ’Um” will be performed at St. Ann’s Warehouse (38 Water St. between Main and Dock streets in DUMBO) Jan. 17-Feb.4 at 8 pm. Tickets are $25. For more information, call (718) 254-8779 or visit the Web site www.artsatstanns.org.
