Isaac Mizrahi's 10th anniversary at Cafe Carlyle, February 3-21
NYC ICON/SINGER ISAAC MIZRAHI CELEBRATES 10TH ANNIVERSARY AT CAFE CARLYLE WITH AN ALL-NEW SHOW, FEBRUARY 3-21
For ten years Isaac Mizrahi has dazzled audiences at the Cafe Carlyle with a great musical style and razor-sharp wit. Now, in his 10th anniversary season, Mizrahi returns with A.I. artificial isaac, an all-new show about current events and the passage of time.
With his sensational six-piece band led by Ben Waltzer, Mizrahi creates a musical sound all his own. The setlist is a “cultural whiplash,” everything from Cy Coleman to Laura Nero, with a few original songs sprinkled in. It all comes together in a satisfying night that leaves the toughest critics praiseful. The New York Times calls him a “founding father of a genre that fuses performance art, music and stand-up comedy.”
A decade of thrills! Ten years later, Isaac does it again. This is one anniversary you don’t want to miss!
Beyond his cabaret performances, Mizrahi has made an indelible mark on the entertainment industry as a performer, host, writer, designer, and producer for over 30 years. He recently worked as a consulting producer on the Hulu sitcom, MID CENTURY MODERN, which premiered this spring. He also recently appeared in Prime’s Étoile, and will have a role in A24’s upcoming Timothee Chalamet / Gwyneth Paltrow film, Marty Supreme, to be released on December 25.
He starred as Amos Hart in the Broadway production of CHICAGO and has graced stages at venues across the country, including his annual residencies at New York City’s Café Carlyle and 54 Below, Bing Concert Hall at Stanford University, Reno’s Artown Festival, Houston’s Hobby Center for the Performing Arts, Connecticut’s Westport Country Playhouse, LA’s The Wallis, and Florida’s Festival of the Arts BOCA.
Mizrahi is also known for his work in film and television. He is the subject and co-creator of the documentary Unzipped, which chronicles the making of his Fall 1994 collection and won an award at the Sundance Film Festival. His television career includes hosting The Isaac Mizrahi Show for seven years and serving as a judge on Project Runway: All-Stars throughout its seven-season run. Mizrahi has directed productions of A Little Night Music and The Magic Flute for the Opera Theatre of St. Louis. Annually, he directs and narrates his production of the children’s classic Peter and The Wolf at The Guggenheim Museum in New York.
Mizrahi also has his own production company, IM Entertainment, under which he has several projects in development in television, theatre and literature. His New York Times Bestselling memoir, I.M., was published in February 2019.
Earlier this year, Isaac Mizrahi announced that he’s selling his archive of one of a kind samples produced in his atelier from 1987 - 2012.

About Café Carlyle:
Tucked behind a Madison Avenue doorway, Café Carlyle welcomes its guests into a classic cabaret setting where incredible talent and music are paired with New York elegance and style, yet in an updated way. Originally opened in 1955, Café Carlyle is known for headlining incredible talent through the years – from classic performers such as Elaine Stritch and Eartha Kitt to more modern-day acts such as Jon Batiste, Isaac Mizrahi, Jeff Goldblum, Jill Kargman, Katharine McPhee, Dianna Agron, Alan Cumming, Debbie Harry and Rita Wilson. For three decades, Café Carlyle was synonymous with the legendary Bobby Short, who thrilled sell-out crowds for 36 years. Seating up to 90 for dinner and a performance, the intimate supper club is highlighted by music-themed murals by Oscar-winning French artist Marcel Vertès. Renowned for its traditional elegance, the Café infuses modern elements without sacrificing the history and refinement that are hallmarks of The Carlyle. Café Carlyle, the New York City bastion of classic cabaret entertainment, continues to draw socialites, politicians and celebrities into its distinguished and glamorous setting.
