This is our first foray into the wide and wonderful world of video games. Since 1972 when Pong hit the scene, video games have embedded themselves into our culture. We are going to celebrate everything from the golden age of arcade games like Super Mario Brothers and Ms. Pac-Man, to favorites like Zelda, The Sims, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, and Cult of the Lamb - Oh and so much more!
Last month Hotsy Totsy turned 17 years old! The first Hotsy Totsy Burlesque was staged in New York in April of 2007 and it’s been a fabulous ride! We have often played to sold-out shows and our dedicated fans gleefully follow the soap opera that is Hotsy Totsy, declaring after each performance, “That was the best show you folks have ever done!” As performers and writers, we have grown as a troupe and as friends and are happy to move into our 17th year of tributing our favorite movies and TV shows with rhinestones, glitter, and flying underpants.
Every month you are invited 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 onward we press 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!
So, join us for Hotsy Totsy Burlesque at The Home for Wayward Girls and Fallen Women where the motto is "We've fallen, we can't get up, and we like it that way!"
