IDOL IDLE IDYL WORSHIP {SACRED AND PROFANE}

Featuring… Justin Bond, Tammy Faye Starlight, Our Lady J, and Lisa Faith Phillips who will bring their sure-fire spirit-lifting performances to help you through these dark days.

As her friends talked about applying for jobs with the exciting new Obama administration, Dr Faith realized she could not go to work to help her country, she could never pass the vetting. There were the arrests, her phone sex job , working as a stripper to put herself through graduate school at the London School of Economics, the recent lawsuit filed against her for her last show, now renamed Dr Faith's Bad Girl's Guide to Mistressing to name a few.

Raised in Ohio in a test site for cable television, Dr. Faith was bred to be a couch potato, but she knew that there had to be something more. Outrageous, poignant and laugh-out-loud funny, follow her journey to Europe, China and the Middle East where she ends up a prisioner of love in Abu Dhabi.

Praise for previous shows -

A close comparison to Goldie Hawn I thought, this performer was outrageously funny and successfully cunning. Intuitive and devilishly clever…Every line demanded a boisterous laugh. She exudes inherent fun like a bottle of champagne. Uplifting and unpredictable, Lisa Faith Phillips should have delivered the damn State of the Union Address this year. - Carolyn Smith, Newyorkcool.com

With a riding crop in one hand, and a feather boa in the other, Dr. Faith lectures, satirizes and sings her way into our psyche. In her charismatic way, Dr. Faith engages the audience with her witticisms and quips, citing current events. Her take on the “axis of evil” suggests a double entendre worthy of exploring! A semi-psychotic break later in the show leads into a hysterical, over the top Broadway tunes tribute. Highlighting other steps, Dr. Faith delivers lovely songs of love & belonging. The audience surrenders to her charm in the number “Let’s Just Keep Falling in Love”. Visit Dr. Faith for a session. Learning to be a mistress has never been more entertaining or effective! - Andrew Gilchrist, MNN Cable Network

Amusing yet oddly touching - The New York Times

Wild, entertaining…chillingly hilarious - The Village Voice

Revealing, uninhibited...entertaining and well written - Back Stage

Molti applausi! -Oggi
