Don’t speak!


When actress Melissa Errico broke a small blood vessel in her throat in 2013 that became her reality — for 106 days.


“I couldn’t talk. I couldn’t whisper,” she says. “In an instant I was swept to a place where I couldn’t communicate.”


But Errico (“My Fair Lady,” “Amore”) could take inventory — of herself and her family history.


She and New Yorker writer Adam Gopnik turned the experience into “Sing the Silence,” Errico’s solo show running Nov. 18 and 19 at Joe's Pub.


The show includes original music and pop songs, like Joni Mitchell’s “People’s Parties.” Errico performs it a capella for the podcast.


Listen in to hear Errico and Gopnik to talk about their collaboration on this show and the new musical “Table” and for songs from Errico’s “What About Today? Live at 54 Below CD.”
