Behind The Wall
Behind The Wall

Brooklyn Premiere
Behind the Wall is a magical realism film about an injured dancer who discovers a musical surprise in her new apartment.

Bklyn Connection:
This is a film set in an old Brooklyn brownstone in which the superintendent, his wife, and the young tenant confront the percussive clanging of the radiator in their apartment. The tale alludes to the effects of gentrification on our senior citizen population and was inspired by the magic hidden in the old dilapidated houses in Brooklyn.

Some recent Stage Reviews:

Karen Lynn is a Member of the Famed Irish Repertory Company Off B'way:

Karen Lynn Gorney

The Field, IRISH REP COMPANY, OFF B"WAY NEW YORK REVIEW: NY Theatre.com August 2006: Karen Lynn Gorney gives perhaps the finest performance of all (one of the very best I can ever recall seeing, in fact) as Dandy McCabe's wife, "Mrs. Dandy McCabe." With economy and humility, Gorney lets us into the heart and soul of this touching woman just by letting us see her laugh, carelessly hold onto her husband's hand, or reach thoughtlessly for her hat when she's suddenly startled.
Gorney's work is indicative of the overall excellence of this production, due in no small part to the fine direction of Ciaran O'Reilly (who went on in the play's final role of William Dee at the performance reviewed). Great care, thought, and respect has gone into the creation of every aspect of this show...

Shakespeare's KING JOHN : late last year Karen Lynn starred at the Arc Light Theatre Off B'way, winning rave reviews as "Constance of Brittany."

From Artzine Online: "As the grief-stricken Constance in her "mad scene," Karen Lynn plays with powerful Zen eloquence: "My name is Constance; I was Geoffrey's wife; Young Arthur is my son and he is lost." The aforementioned Geoffrey is the murdered Richard I (Goeffrey Plantagenet), and Arthur her just murdered adolescent son - the legal heir to the throne. Karen Lynn Gorney played the distraught Constance, first with understatement, then with fire. She has a clarion control of emotional effect. The venom was palpable in her rebuttal to King Philip "He talks to me that never had a son!" There was real moment in her "...let kings assemble" speech from Act 3.

"Backstage.com (Off B'way): "Karen Lynn Gorney is touching as Constance, Arthur's bereft mother"


Karen Lynn starred in The 3rd Gender Off B'way late summer at the Connelly Theatre. .

Karen Lynn Gorney stars in CREATING KARMA
CREATING KARMA East Coast Premiere Nov. 19, on dvd:
for info see Facebook site: : Creating Karma

Creating Karma
Karen Lynn Gorney, dancing diva co-star of Saturday Night Fever, is the top billed star in the new comedy feature CREATING KARMA having its US Theatrical premiere the week of Oct. 16 in the role of Chanel "Fields" Fontaine, Karma's glamorous, British, shopaholic mother.

NewsTimes.com Hearst newspapers Nov.2009: Interview with Jill Wisoff, director

"I understand Karen Lynn Gorney (best known for her role as John Travolta's dancing partner Stephanie Mangano in 1977's "Saturday Night Fever") is in the cast. What was it like to work with her? Is there anything about her that fans would be surprised to learn?

Karen (who plays a shopaholic British woman named Chanel) doesn't have that strong Brooklyn accent that we all remember her with in "Saturday Night Fever." It was all acting. She is a very accomplished actress and was a dream to work with."

CREATING KARMA PRESS RELEASE:

Karma, uptight fashion editor, becomes a poet after losing her job and moving in with her wacky new-age therapist sister in this first time feature by Jill Wisoff. While the film gives a nod to the sixties Peter Sellars screwball farces “The Party” and “I love you Alice B. Toklas”, it's to be enjoyed for its corny borscht belt humor and New York locales familiar in the works of Mel Brooks and Woody Allen.

Creating Karma is a truly indie film with a screenplay by and co-starring Jill Wisoff and Carol Lee Sirugo, a cast of over one hundred including top billed dancing diva co-star of "Saturday Night Fever" fame Karen Lynn Gorney, esteemed character actor Joe Grifasi and talented newcomers. Catchy songs by Jill Wisoff ("Welcome to the Dollhouse" songs/score, co-star in Todd Solondz's "Fear, Anxiety & Depression") and music by Joel Diamond (Sundance Winner “The Believer”, “Milarepa”).

Winner of two best comedy feature awards including the 2008 Best Feature Award at the Broad Humor Film Festival. Comedy

Publicity quote by the 2008 Broad Humor Festival:
"This manic Bollywood-style romp from the 60's era of free love to contemporary pseudo-spiritual philosophy is big-screen farce full of fun!"

Official LA Splash Review:
“Farce is a genre where, if you do it right, your movie ebbs and flows comfortably between the ridiculous and the outrageous. And farce in full force is what you will get with the comedy feature Creating Karma. The montage cross dissolving motif employed in the film serves well to toy with time and add a healthy touch of the dreamscape surreal. Jill Wisoff and Carol Lee Sirugo are co-writers and co-stars in this “boobs to the wall” comedy with Wisoff also tackling director duties. CREATING KARMA was awarded BEST FEATURE in the 2008 Broad Humor Film Festival.”

Last Season
Karen Lynn performed her one woman HOT MOONLIGHT! Show a number of times at Chez Suzette in New York City and regaled sold out crowds with stories about her famous composer father Jay Gorney (Brother Can You Spare a Dime, You're My Thrill) while singing all the songs on her new HOT MOONLIGHT! CD of her Dad's hits which was released to rave reviews last year and is now on sale in stores and on this website in the autograph store: below are some of the reviews-

In Tune, International "...updated, hard driving, swift versions of songs...Karen really has her way with these songs. Excitement is in the air at all times...she sings her very heart out."

Variety:
"Gorney...has a good stage manner...in her musical performance she really scores. Her interpretations are often jazzy in nature, which suits her voice well...numbers are performed with an engaging lilt. Gorney has a background as an actress...and is ready to branch out."

LA Times:
"...Saturday Night Fever made Gorney an instant movie star...judging from her performance...her singing...can be classified as skilled."

The Evening Bulletin: Poptalk (Philadelphia):
"...a voice- two parts flirtatious/vivacious and one part sincere...
Brisk pacing, and inspired coloration...One can derive fair pleasure from the skillful weave of (the) rhythmic bed.'

Stevenslants by Gary Stevens:
"Her daddy, Jay Gorney, wrote hit melodies in the long ago 1930s, so daughter Karen Lynn laid down some tracks for a CD in which she gave a 21 st Century treatment to pop's output."

New York Sheet Music Society:
It is hard to decide where to start in praising this wonderful new CD:
Karen Lynn Gorney's terrific and individualistic style, or her father, Jay Gorney's terrific contribution to the Great American Songbook.
Both should come first! ... Karen has a wonderful balance of mood and tempo in her selections. It comes as no surprise that this is such a great album to listen to. Karen has been a professional all her life and it really shows...she is definitely her father's daughter, and she puts her own individual interpretation into each and every song.


CD signing last winter: The Compact Disc Shoppe in Brooklyn
Karen appeared and signed her CD-USED TO LOVE YOU MADLY-her own music and lyrics, rhythm guitar, vocals and harmonies and band (recorded in London at Abbey Road, in New York and Live from in Philly) written during the filming of Saturday Night Fever in her trailer ("Stephanie's" thoughts and feelings about love).
