Bay Area Reporter: Katya Smirnoff-Skyy celebrates 18 Years at Martuni's
"I generally don't lip sync unless I absolutely have to," bragged actor and singer J. Conrad Frank. "I am a theater person, so I approach anything I do character first."
In an interview with the Bay Area Reporter, Frank explained that the character Katya Smirnoff-Skyy was custom-made for a specific reason: to host cabaret and sing live. This week Katya celebrates 18 years hosting Katya Presents at Martuni's piano bar, a passion project that became an institution.
