A regular at the Metropolitan Opera, and a 2019 Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions winner, Miles Mykkanen has garnered recognition on the world’s concert and operatic stages for his “focused, full-voiced tenor” (New York Times). Lauded as one of classical music’s rising stars, Mykkanen is captivating as a cabaret performer with a theatrical flair and a singular approach to song. For his debut at the Neue Galerie’s Cabaret at Café Sabarsky, Mykkanen will present a searing overview of the turbulent 1920s in song and story. I am honored to be directing and writing for Miles again, one of my most frequent collaborators! Music direction by the brilliant Adam Rothenberg.

​
Ten people are stranded in an isolated English country house during a raging thunderstorm. Suddenly, one by one theyre picked off by cleverly fiendish devices. As the bodies pile up in the library, the survivors frantically race to uncover the identity and motivation of the cunning culprit. Somethings Afoot is a zany, entertaining musical comedy that takes a satirical poke at Agatha Christie mysteries and musical styles of the English music hall of the 30s.
