The mysterious Q has come back in time to find out who has framed him for the planetary garbage fire on earth that was 2020. Meanwhile, Captain Kirk has been stranded at The Home for Wayward Girls and Fallen Women for almost a year after a time travel excursion to whale watch landed him accidentally in the midst of the Covid Pandemic. Can Cherry Pitz help these intergalactic space guys, and can they help her in return to book Lwaxana Troi as the closing act of this, the first back-to-live-shows performance of Hotsy Totsy Burlesque?

As live shows return to New York City, Hotsy Totsy Burlesque, in its 15th year of performances, takes to the stage with a brand new burlesque tribute to Gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek. With nine different TV series, countless books, comic books, and a movie franchise, Star Trek is one of the most beloved science fiction franchises in the world. Hotsy Totsy will pay tribute to decades of amazing work with love and fondness.

The show will be hosted by Cherry Pitz and Handsome Brad, with performances by Perse Fanny, Luna Lee, Le Grand Chaton, Matt Knife, and Brief Sweat. It will also feature Bimini Cricket, keeping everything neat and tidy, and Rosey Cheeks warming up the crowd.

Shows will continue each month, to keep The Home For Wayward Girls and Fallen Women in operation and its residents in G-strings and glitter. In the past, the residents have battled, with tassels spinning, Daleks, Darth Vader, The Borg, Zombies, Network Censors, Evil from other dimensions, and, most recently, Covid-19. Upcoming shows include tributes to Doctor Who in September and Scooby Doo in October. The motto of Hotsy Totsy Burlesque at The Home For Wayward Girls and Fallen Women is "We've fallen, we can't get up, and we like it that way!" You will too.

American Blues: 5 Short Plays by Tennessee Williams Written by Tennessee Williams Directed by Jim Niesen Presented by the Irondale Ensemble Project at The Space at Irondale 85 South Oxford St., Brooklyn, NYC October 27-November 26, 2023 Shadenia Savid in Moony's Kids Don't Cry . Photo by Natasha Rotondaro In 1948, Tennessee Williams published American Blues , a collection of five one-act plays, and a remarkable new production of this collection by Brooklyn's Irondale shows that these works have lost none of their power to both entertain and challenge audiences in the intervening three-quarters of a century. Comprising plays written in the decade between 1936 and 1946 - Moony's Kids Don't Cry (1936); The Dark Room (1939); The Case of the Crushed Petunias (1941); The Long Stay Cut Short, or, the Unsatisfactory Supper (1946); and Ten Blocks on the Camino Real (1946) - American Blues represents the second part of Irondale's American Century, the first install

Review: Nancy Redman’s "A Séance with Mom" Conjures Mother-Daughter Hilarity and Love

A Séance with Mom Written by Nancy Redman Directed by Austin Pendleton Presented at Chain Studio Theatre 312 W. 36th St., Manhattan, NYC April 20-23, 2023 [Update 5/1/23: shows added May 24-June 4, 2023 (no performance May 29)] Nancy Redman Nancy Redman appears onstage, a simple table in front of her, a walker off to the side. Within seconds, we are immersed in a séance involving two then three then four characters—all emerging from only Redman. Redman plays Nadine, a woman who has something urgent to address with her dead mother, Gussy. Redman manages multi-faceted character work, each character in conversation with the other, complete with different gestures, accents, and mannerisms. The effect is riveting and, ultimately, deeply cathartic. The heart of the show comprises Nadine’s mission to reach her mother through a séance in order to talk. An unwitting rabbi plays the bumbling gatekeeper to the spirits in the séance, while Nadine’s something—actually several somethings—to tell her
