What the F%#@ is this? Wanna go?

Every once in a while something so weird comes to town that you just have to go. This might be it.



Lazer Vaudeville combines high-tech laser magic with the traditional arts of vaudeville to create an original theatrical production. Complete with superlative juggling, black light illusion, acrobatics, zany comedy, and audience participation, Lazer Vaudeville offers clean, classy fun for the entire family. A cast of fantastical characters leads the audience on a journey through the imagination as a wizard creates magical illusions with laser beams, a neon cowboy kicks up a luminescent rope-spinning display, and an audience member escapes from a straitjacket. The master of ceremonies is a seven-foot tall, fluorescent, fire-breathing dragon named Alfonzo.




Clean, classy fun? Sounds like PDD needs to come down on their ass with some good ol dirty fun.

Founded in 1987, the touring company fulfills Carter Brown's dream of bringing a contemporary vaudeville show back to the American stage. Internationally acclaimed as a master of his craft, Brown demonstrates the endangered art of hoop rolling. In an astonishing visual display, up to ten hoops roll around the juggler's body and circle the stage as if taking on a life of their own. Some are century-old antique wooden bicycle rims. Brown and fellow performers Bee Jay Joyer and Cindy Marvell also juggle modern items such as plungers, machetes, and running chain saws.

Chain saws? Hell yeah!

I call another PDD field trip. Lundgren knows a free way in otherwise its 10 bucks, maybe cheaper with a student ID.

See ya there.
