The Queen of Everything: A F*ckloric Folktale, is a sexy, avant-garde theatrical production inspired by Alpine fairy and folk tales, created by Trixie Little, the current Reigning Queen of Burlesque. The story begins with the innocent milk maid, Trixie Littlewurst, who is held captive by the demands of giant Cuckoo Clock. Trixie longs to be free from her repetitive existence, until a chance encounter with a mysterious old beggar woman launches her on a surreal adventure deep into the dark forest. Traveling with her two shape-shifting assistants, The Nightmares, Trixie goes on the ultimate heroine's journey to retrieve the crown that will buy her freedom. Classically modern, tragically comic and poignantly pointless. Set to a live, original score by the psych-mambo quartet, Gato Loco.
Steven Epp is back with A Doctor in Spite of Himself. The traditional story of a girl feigning illness to avoid an unwanted wedding erupts into hilarity when Epp decides to play doctor. In a pitch-perfect production punctuated with live music, this ridiculous physician proves that love and laughter remain life's best medicine.
