n2005, where did you hear that? I am almost positive there is no age minimum at The Zipper Factory.
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.
Aw, man. Now I have to decide between Megan and Mandy (Patinkin).
Screw it. I'll go to both. Call it a birthday present. (Or a tax break present.)

Their recent engagements include Lincoln Center, the Kennedy Center, the Seattle Symphony, and Orange County Performing Arts Center. Supreme Music Program has released three records: "Sweetheart” (1999), “Big as a Berry” (2002) and the recent "Free Again!" (2007). Supreme Music Program lead vocalist Megan Mullally is currently starring on Broadway in the hit musical Young Frankenstein, having previously appeared in the Broadway revivals of How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying and Grease.
