06/30/09 Show: The Art Of Prostitution - My Review

  • Onyx Theatre
  • 1 AM - I believe last night was the final performance
  • Cost $20

Revel in the taboo as our story teller walks you through the world of Prostitution. A world of seduction embraced and condemned by society. Filled with music, rhythm and spectacular dance, this thrilling musical teases the mind and excites the senses.

Although the topic provocative and the dance movements erotic, all was in good taste. Yes, there were beautiful scantily clad people on stage performing, but nothing more than you would see on a trip to the beach.

My one complaint... a show at 1AM. It makes it hard to want to get up for work in the morning.

OK. I admit I could not take my eyes off of one of the girls (I won't mention who). What can I say other than I am a healthy male with a good eye for women.

Show: SET

  • Onyx Theatre 8:00 PM
  • Cost $7 - Cheaper if you are involved in classes
  • Weekly - every Monday

This is an outlet for people who want to be in comedy (or love comedy). A local comedy school (Improv Vegas... I believe [ formally associated with Second City]) hosts a scheduled practice and show for their students and teachers.

Once the main acts are done... if there is time they do roulette - a chance for the audience (mostly students) to get involved with structured improvisational games.

I've been attending this more frequently. I have to admit that they usually have me in stitches. BTW - I'll be the one with the obnoxious contagious laughter.

06/16/09 Show: Shear Madness - My Review

  • Offer from HouseSeats
  • Town Square Shear Madness Theatre 7:00 PM

What do you get when you take an outspoken flamboyant man, a ditsy redhead, a guy in a suit and a rich cougar and put them together? No not an episode of Will & Grace... Shear Madness.

Set in a hairdressing salon, this comedic who- done - it is a real cut-up (pun intended). It had me in stitches.

Personal aside: I have obnoxious contagious laughter. I've stopped comedy routines before. This was the first time I stopped a play. (Four of the six actors on stage could not keep a straight face)

06/15/09 Show: Set - My Review

  • Onyx Theatre 8:00 PM
  • Cost $7 - Cheaper if you are involved in classes
  • Weekly - every Monday

This is an outlet for people who want to be in comedy (or love comedy). A local comedy school (Improv Las Vegas... I believe [ formally associated with Second City]) hosts a scheduled practice and show for their students and teachers.

Not everything is perfect, but it is not meant to be as Improv is the art of creating comedy on the fly. Regardless some of the acts/performances are truly side splitting.

Once the main acts are done.. if there is time they do roulette - a chance for the audience (mostly students) to get involved with structured improv games.

I'm not a regular, but I should be as this is a great place to laugh.

06/11/09 Show: Sin City Bad Girls - My Review

  • Offer from Houseseats
  • Las Vegas Hilton 9:00 PM

Contrary to the reviews that I have read, I really enjoyed this one hour burlesque show. Along with a live trio (guitar, keyboard and drums) and a female lead vocalist, this show kicks up the action with high energy music and hot semi-clothed women for the majority of the show.

The show takes you through a number of different fantasy scenarios including naughty nurses, barely there night ware and sinful schoolgirls. The doctors came to visit this very happy patient at the front table... although I only got a sucker even though my heart was pounding out of my chest.

I was happy to see two familiar faces on stage (the former Gigi and Summer from Sin City Kitties). Never a bad thing to see these beauties again -and now no longer a drive to Primm.

Not that it dieters at all from the show, but my only regret is that the lead singer only teases the audience with her endowments but never reveals them.

Oh yeah... for the month of June, the Hilton is offering 2 for 1 tickets. So even if you can't find 'em free, you can get 'em cheap.
