"it's a totally silly hybrid that is part vaudeville, part burlesque, part musical comedy, part satire, part improv and part nightclub act."

"In other words, this is a Broadway musical for the age of Jon Stewart -- one that is always sweetly winking in its politically incorrect naughtiness, but that at the same time gleefully indulges in that worship itself."

" part vaudeville, part burlesque, part musical comedy" Sounds like my kind of show! (Actually it sounds like my life). If I wasn't on the other side of the Pacific I'd be there! Go.
