KENN BOISINGER, the twisted alter ego of Michael West (NEWSical, Forbidden Broadway, When Pigs Fly), has been delighting (and disturbing) cabaret audiences and critics with sold out shows at Birdland, a residency at Green Room 42, and his wildly successful online virtual concerts. BroadwayWorld.com states “Michael West strikes comic gold once more with Kenn Boisinger. It’s just enough to leave you coasting somewhere between insanity and hilarity.
It’s comic perfection”. Kenn is well known for his priceless takes on songs from the classic American songbook and original tunes such as “Is She a Call Girl, or Just a Girl I’d Like to Call”, “Stay For the Loud Note”, “Third Rail” and “Daddy Drinks Because You Cry”.
Born and raised in the Cleveland suburb of Parma, Ohio, Kenn has appeared in major venues throughout the continental United States, from Bangor, Maine to Hollywood (Florida) to the performing arts center on his beloved Staten Island, which Kenn and his family (his mother, Hilldred and his brother, Robbert) have called home since 1985. In addition to his many show business achievements, Kenn was Amway Regional Salesman of the Quarter in fall of 1989, and was Radio Shack Regional Manager of the Month for the Egbertville district of Staten Island in August of 1997.
