Personality Crisis: One Night Only, a Martin Scorsese film about singer David Johansen, debuts on Showtime Friday, April 14. With a Johansen cabaret performance filmed in January 2020 at New York Café Carlyle as its centerpiece, Personality Crisis “explores Johansen’s enormous influence as he regales the audience with stories and music illuminating the art and cultural evolution of New York City,” according to Showtime.
Johansen, from Staten Island, fronted the influential glam punk band New York Dolls in the early ‘70s. He’s had solo careers, both as David Johansen and Buster Poindexter.
