The Weird and Wonderful World of Industrial Musicals

City Winery NYC presents The Weird and Wonderful World of Industrial Musicals on September 7th at 7:30 PM.

Diesel Dazzle… Got to Investigate Silicones…The Bathrooms Are Coming…? Welcome to the hilarious alternate universe of industrial musical theater, presented by Letterman and Simpsons writer Steve Young.

Steve, the star of Dava Whisenant’s award-winning documentary Bathtubs Over Broadway, discovered sales meeting musicals while gathering obscure albums for the Letterman show’s "Dave's Record Collection" segment. As the world's authority on the secret world of industrial shows the public was never supposed to see, Steve screens bizarre vintage in-house films from General Electric, Kellogg’s, American-Standard, Citgo, Purina, and more, with affectionately snarky commentary (and even a bit of live music). You'll laugh, you’ll say WTF -- and you might even want to get out there and sell, sell, sell!

“Steve Young is a show business triple threat. Quadruple threat? Who cares, no one is safe!” — Dave Letterman
