Kinsey Sicks to appear at Wieden Auditorium

PRESQUE ISLE — The Kinsey Sicks, the Dragapella Beauty Shop Quartet, will take the stage at Wieden Auditorium at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, March 29, to deliver a night full of a cappella singing and comedy.

Since 1993, the Kinsey Sicks has served up a feast of music and comedy. The group’s award-winning a cappella singing, sharp satire and over-the-top drag have earned them a diverse and devoted following. The evening’s performance is sponsored by the Campus Activities Board, Cultural Events Committee, Diversity Committee, Gay Straight Alliance and Student Organization of Social Work.

The Kinsey Sicks have performed in more than 40 states around the country, along with appearances in Canada, Mexico, Europe and Australia, an Off-Broadway show and an extended run in Las Vegas. The group has been featured in the New York Times and appeared on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent,” ABC’s “20/20” and on the “CBS Early Show with Bryant Gumbel.”

One free ticket is available for UMPI, NMCC and SAGE students with a valid ID; an additional ticket is $5. General admission for this show is $10 in advance or $15 at the door if seats are still available. Tickets are on sale now at the UMPI Bookstore in the Campus Center.
