Just in time for Valentine's Day, Hotsy Totsy Burlesque - in its 15th year of paying tribute to favorite movies and TV shows with rhinestones, glitter, and flying underpants, and winner of Broadway World's “Best Burlesque Show of 2023” - will present its fan-favorite annual tribute to the ladies of Disney.

Prince Charming (Handsome Brad) and his wife, the Cherry Godmother, are throwing their annual Bride Finding Ball, this time for Tinkerbell, the original Manic Pixie Dream Girl. But is finding a handsome prince really her idea of happily ever after?

The show will take place at The Slipper Room (167 Orchard Street, NYC), a 21+ venue, on Thursday, February 8, 2024. The performance will be hosted by Cherry Pitz & Handsome Brad, with special guest host Bimini Cricket; acts by Fortune Cookie, Persé Fanny, Betty Brash, and Rosie Cheeks; gogo by Bitsy Brûlée, and stage kitten duties handled by Dutch Baby. Admission is $25 pre-sold reserved seating, and tickets can be purchased at www.slipperroom.com or https://bit.ly/HotsyTotsyDisney. \

Doors open at 7:00 pm, and the show begins at 8 pm. / Show at 8:00

In addition to this February's Disney tribute, Hotsy Totsy invites you each month to The Home For Wayward Girls and Fallen Women. The residents of the home need money to keep their hotel open and to buy G-strings and glitter. Sadly, the shows have had their technical difficulties, and in the past, they have had to combat Daleks, Darth Vader, The Borg, zombies, the ghost of Vincent Price, network censors, evil from other dimensions, and, most recently, Covid-19. But Hotsy Totsy presses onward, and the house mother,Cherry Pitz, along with her faithful consort Handsome Brad, promise you beautiful, clothing-averse nerds, lots of laughs, spinning tassels and fun!

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.

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

Image
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
