Gitcher booties on down to Seattle's Speakeasy Cafe Backroom, 2304 2nd Ave., and catch EasyBake, a new play by Wesley Middleton. Yum. EasyBake was inspired by a box of creepy Betty Crocker recipe cards and several years of behind-glass gyration at Seattle's Lusty Lady. The play pushes past sex-work stereotypes to present the sharp, dark, and often hilarious saga of four dancers in a larger-than-life peep show world. It's a big funny smart pink scrumptious feast, with luscious eye candy, cherry-topped nightmares, lipstick-framed expletives, spicy dyke drama, a seductive intruder, delicious bitchiness, ridiculous humor, freak pregnancy stories, sweet birthday spankings, and magic dessert -- all for the low price of only ten dollars! Directed by Anita Montgomery, presented by Artemis Productions and Allied Arts, EasyBake runs June 8-11, 15-18, and 23-25 (note: no Thursday show on the final weekend.) All shows are at 8pm. Tickets are $10, sold at the door, payable by cash or check. To make reservations, call (206) 760-0870. HEY! Don't want to pay for your tickets? No problem. Catch this hot little treat for FREE by ushering for a performance! Call (206) 760-0870 and give us your info. Final gratuitous food metaphors: Don't miss this juicy new piece of theatre. It'll leave you begging for seconds! |
