The Reviews Are In!


And here's what the noted theater critics have to say about "Vaudeville & Vixens"!

"Filled with variety acts including cornball comedy bits including slapstick, wordplay and general clowning together with flirty ‘tease’ dances by the girls"

"a 90-minute variety show that is much more than mere titillation."

"funny and sexy"

"congenial nuttiness and plenty of bawdy humor"

"Vaudeville and Vixens" is a blast from the past

"In Piccolo Theatre’s show, careful attention was made to mounted a pure, 40’s style vaudeville/burlesque show."

"true to the stylings of Buster Keaton and Abbott and Costello"

"the energy of the cast and the tunes were quite fetching"

"The burlesque numbers did provide some creative re-imaginings of the form. Far from the spiritless gyrations you'd get at some place like the Admiral, these four ladies (Dori Scallet, Deborah Craft, Denita Linnertz and Vanessa Hughes, who also choreographed the show) provided an urban edginess and sense of power"

"Vaudeville and Vixens" is a high-spirited revue"

"If you have never seen a pure vaudeville/burlesque show, Piccolo’s “Vaudeville and Vixeens” comes close. Be warned, this is raw sexy humor."


Sounds like a hit to me!
