Joe Orrach delivers a power-packed original coming of age story in rhythms of jazz, Latin, rock 'n roll, tap and boxing. Born into a family dominated by a line of Puerto Rican boxers and sweetened by food, gesture and song, Joe tells his energetic story to the accompaniment of a jazz ensemble, led by musical director and world class pianist Matthew Clark.
This dramatic solo performance, fun and full of life, comes to the City Club after sold-out runs in San Francisco, great reviews and an Izzy nomination for this Sicilian actor, dancer, singer and US Air Force welterweight boxing champ who has performed with Gregory Hines, Savion Glover and appeared in films by Woody Allen, James Mangold and others. A 75 minute show.
"Bay Area performer Joe Orrach's 'In My Corner' is a knockout" - Contra Costa Times
"In My Corner… would be merely a tour-de-force if it weren't so close to the bone... It's truly a show, continuous entertainment, its infectious spirit telegraphed by the rapture of the performer." - Berkeley Daily Planet
"Orrach is an electrifying performer!" – East Bay Express
