Boston, MA, Zany Hijinx Productions presents God Save the Queen - Paul Lynde '79 by special arrangement with the Paul Lynde Estate at Machine in Boston with Gene Dante, star of the critically acclaimed Hedwig and the Angry Inch production that took place at the Institute for Contemporary Art Theatre, Axis Nightclub and Church.
God Save the Queen - Paul Lynde '79 starring Gene Dante. In 1979, frustrated with the lack of serious roles being offered him, Paul Lynde abruptly quit Hollywood Squares while his personal life spiraled out of control. Zany Hijinx presents and intimate peek at the beloved Center Square and ponders what brought him to this point and what could redeem him. Best known for his quick-witted comebacks on Hollywood Squares and as Uncle Arthur in Bewitched, Paul was his own biggest critic and was never satisfied with his career or personal life. This production premiered earlier this summer in Portland Maine and was a dark horse hit at Portland's fringe festival, PortFringe.
Zany Hijinx comprised of Lisa Boucher Hartman (Portland, Emerson College graduate) and Gene Dante (Boston) is the production company behind the New England Tour of Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
Gene Dante (Paul Lynde): Gene appeared as Dionysus in THE BACCHAE at American Repertory Theaters Oberon Nightclub. Previously at A.R.T. Gene appeared in both The Lillys Revenge and The Rocky Horror Show (Brad Majors, Elliot Norton Award nomination). He also was the title role in the recent critically acclaimed New England Tour of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Previous roles include Elton John & Tim Rice's Aida (Radames), Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson (Andrew Jackson), The Fantasticks (El Gallo), and Disneys Beauty and the Beast (The Beast), and several appearances in productions by Ryan Landry's Gold Dust Orphans. Gene writes and performs original music with his band The Future Starlets. He is very stalkable. www.genedante.com
