Went to see the Lord of the Boobs Burlesque show last week with my buddy Bill at the Gorilla Tango theater. It's a small place, right down from the bar I hang out at. It's tiny, but nice. Lots of brick and, well, as stage, not much else.
The show was more like a comedy play, with interspersed burlesque acts, than your average dancing girl show. I could tell that whoever wrote it had learned their lessons in "geek-speak" well and had a +1 Girdle of Humor on. Four heroes set out to kill the evil "DragonBitch". They meet with werewolves, witches, life stealing dryads, spiders, and malicious pixies along the way. The whole thing was ripe with D&D jokes (Tit Point for Hit Points, etc), LotR and Harry Potter jokes, and... of course, booty jokes (dwarf underwear reading "Sweet Loot"). The attitude was more silly and fun than sexy, but in a good way. And there was no lack of sexy too. It all culminated in a fight between two dragon chicks, a big dance number, and a hell of a lot of applause. Totally worth seeing!
