About Me

Have you ever wondered how you might be rewarded or punished when your time is up?In her new, not-to-be-missed, one woman show, ACCIDENT, Amy Ziff (the self proclaimed irreverent diva from your favorite pop group, BETTY), uses a cast of comedic characters, music, and monologues to explore the crazy meaning of Life and After-Life. Besides touring the globe with BETTY for nearly two decades, Amy has appeared on tv, film, and animation-including providing the voices of Edith’s mother and Ida on the ABC series Edith Ann starring Lily Tomlin. This is Amy’s second one woman show (where does she find the time?)For Amy's dates with BETTY see myspace.com/bettymusic.Here’s what some people in the know are saying about Amy’s work:“Besides demonstrating a sharp eye for B-movie images, Ms. Ziff's monologues offer a sly feminist critique on the stereotyping of women... Lighthearted but layered with meanings, it typifies her method of filtering sexual politics through a pop cultural eye that is often fastened on junk culture.”New York Times.“Amy, lets the audience come to her during an airy, Mae West-ian offhandedness, only to explode zanily in sketches and in between.” Washington City Paper.“As a seasoned performer, Amy Ziff already knows how to hold an audience's attention. Beyond her musicianship, she wears the hats of several different characters quite well- whether she's sending up a flight attendant who witnesses one of Betty's signature tiffs or sending up herself as a coke-fueled dervish.” Chicago Free PressBut- don’t take anybody else’s word for it...come see for yourself, bring some chums...and don’t forget to find Amy backstage-give her some constructive comments, maybe flowers, chocolates, or even some bling. She’ll be verrry appreciative!
