Laura's Live Musical-Comedy Shows!

 
In addition to being a world class comedy writer and a fabulous babe, Laura Ainsworth is also an amazing singer whose parody songs have been heard on radio stations worldwide.   Her live show, My Ship Has Sailed, with pianist extraordinare Brian Piper (Jerry Jeff Walker, Cab Calloway and countless others) lampoons the pressure to keep young and beautiful via outrageous parody lyrics about Botox, plastic surgery and fad diets, set to gorgeous tunes ranging from Kern to Madonna to Puccini.  The show has appeared in a number of major venues, including the Dallas and Las Vegas Comedy Festivals, the main stage of the Out-Of-The- Loop Theatre Festival, Comcast Cable, Q TV, and many theaters, music clubs and cabarets.  The Ft. Worth Star-Telegram called it "a potential cult phenomenon" and BroadwayWorld.com called Laura both "a gifted comedienne" and "a fine singer with an outstanding range and genuine wit" who "wrings maximum doses of humor out of every last wonderful lyric that she has written."   
NEXT SHOWS: March 27-30.

Laura also has a new show, Cole Porter: Elegance & Decadence, with the terrific singer/pianist Michael Gott.   Here's a rave review.
