The Laurie Beechman Theatre will welcome actor/singer, AEA and MAC Member, genderqueer performing artist, Earl Grey (they/them) to the stage for their debut cabaret show, I Am Me – On Purpose! Grey will perform three shows beginning in September 2026 under the direction of Michael Kirk Lane with musical direction by Yasuhiko Fukuoka.

Performance dates are: 9/10/26, 10/10/26, 11/12/26 at 7PM. The popular Laurie Beechman Theatre is downstairs at the West Bank Café at 407 West 42nd Street between 9 th and 10 th Aves.

Earl Grey combines their decades-long work as a professional performer with a 20-year career as a psychotherapist working internationally. With Music Director Yasuhiko Fukuoka leading a trio and backup vocalists, their hour-long show aims to entertain and inspire hope, sharing a personal journey of self-acceptance, authenticity, transmutation, and the natural power of the divine feminine. I Am ME shares experiences that unite us in our humanity to empower you us to embrace ourselves, as we are.
