Performer and Psychotherapist Earl Grey Makes New York Cabaret Debut with I Am Me – On Purpose! at the Laurie Beechman Theatre
A deeply personal – and FUN – evening of songs and stories celebrating authenticity, resilience, and the courage to embrace one’s true self.
After spending more than two decades helping others discover their authentic selves as a psychotherapist, performer and educator Earl Grey (they/them), a genderqueer artist, is stepping into the spotlight to share their own story.
This fall, Grey makes their New York cabaret debut with I Am Me – On Purpose!, an intimate and uplifting evening of music and storytelling directed by acclaimed cabaret artist Michael Kirk Lane, with musical direction by Yasuhiko Fukuoka. The show will be presented at the Laurie Beechman Theatre for three performances: September 10 at 7PM, October 10 at 3PM, and November 12, 2026 at 7:00 PM.
Drawing from a life that has unfolded on both the stage and in the therapy room, I Am Me – On Purpose! explores identity, self-acceptance, transformation, and the universal search for belonging. Through songs by legendary composers including Jimmy Webb, Alan Menken, Richard Rodgers, William Finn, Zina Goldrich, and Bill Withers, Grey invites audiences into a heartfelt and often joyful journey that celebrates our shared humanity. Earl is funny, sincere and warm.
