KIP AND SYLVIA TONIGHT ON D-DECK

Kip & Sylvia is a very funny comedy with a cast of 3 that was written by Tom Leopold longtime writer for Seinfeld and Cheers. 

KIP AND SYLVIA - Tonight On D-Deck

Our show takes place in the showroom of the once ill-fated Italian cruise ship The Concordia. The ship’s captain crashed into a reef killing 30 vacationers who were, up till then, having a great time...

The good news is The Concordia II has been launched, the captain is out of jail and will once again be taking the helm.

To lure passengers, the company reached out to the world’s top entertainers...none of them “reached” back. So Kip and Sylvia Glasscock, the unhappily married husband and wife songwriting team will perform songs from their failed shows and stories from their equally failed lives.

The show is performed with a cast of 2 and a Piano Player

The show has performed in front of sold-out audiences in NYC with great casts that have included Richard Kind, Jackie Hoffman, Craig Bierko, Ilene Kristen, Loudain Wainright III and Beverly D'Angelo.
