Happy Life Day! For the 14th year!
Gather around the Tree of Life—it’s time for the Hotsy Totsy Burlesque Star Wars Holiday Special tribute! They have been doing this for 14 years, each time with a brand-new script and featuring a selection of odd and troubling clips from the original TV show.
This year, George Lucas is back with more ideas on how to expand the celebration of Life Day. Could it get any worse than the original 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special? Right?
Hosts: Cherry Pitz & Handsome Brad Special Guests: Andy Ross Acts: Persé Fanny, Chrissy Bunz, Ghula Mortisse, Desiree DeSade, Fortune Cookie & Brief Sweat Go-Go: Erika Rodgers Stage Kitten: Betty Brash
This is the 14th year of Hotsy Totsy paying tribute to The Star Wars Holiday Special, celebrating its 46th anniversary! If you haven’t seen it, you haven’t experienced Bea Arthur singing and dancing with space-alien bar patrons in the Tatooine Cantina (watch here).
Widely considered one of the worst holiday specials ever, it even has its own documentary, A Disturbance in the Force (link). George Lucas famously said, “If I had the time and a sledgehammer, I would track down every copy of that show and smash it.”
Imagine Star Wars mashed with rejected skits from The Carol Burnett Show and out-of-work Sid and Marty Krofft actors. The original trilogy cast—Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford—were trapped under contract, while writers who hadn’t even seen the movie brought in top talent like Harvey Korman, Bea Arthur, Art Carney, and Tony Award–winner Dianne Carroll.
It’s packed with WTF moments: Carrie Fisher singing (clip), unexpected musical numbers, and yes… even Wookie-p*rn (clip).

About the Theatre
The concept of performers and impresarios James and Camille Habacker, the venue first opened in 1999 when the neo-burlesque scene of New York was in its infancy. The Slipper Room is the first venue built specifically to showcase the work of a new collective and designed to nurture emerging talent. The shows consist of performance artists, dancers, drag queens, vaudeville, variety and sideshow acts, often performing outrageous, messy and lewd routines. The Habackers encourage performers to push themselves to try out new work without fear of censorship.
