"Crazy" - Jenifer Lewis (Comedian/Singer) - "Cabaret Beat"

"Gutsy" has been used to describe this energetic performer. In this song, Jenifer Lewis blends the musical and the physical as she invites the audience to follow her to where we are all going...Crazy.
This performance is from the premiere episode of, "Cabaret Beat", a regular segment hosted by Bradshaw Smith. The segment went on to have an extended run on GCN nationally. The performances it showcased were always entertaining and definitely N.Y.C!
This episode was produced in 1985 in New York City by Lou Maletta. Mr. Maletta was the national producer of the Gay Cable Network. Lou passed away in 2011. This segment is part of his enduring legacy.
Note: This segment is from a VHS 'air check' of the program from 1985. The quality of the image has been adjusted for the internet. The quality of the performance is original.
