Happily we decided to attend this Vaudeville event. Not exactly sure what we were in for, we decided at any rate the RESCU cause was a good one.
From our walk in the door, till our exit of the theater (three+ hours later) we were met with excitement and silliness, intermixed with terrific music and baudy entertainment.
This was not just a raw rehash of all their existing stage shows, but a nice presentation with plenty of friendly audience interaction. As noted in their flyer, parental discretion strongly advised, the language was racy, and inuendo was rampant. But, overall, there was nothing any teenager hasn’t already been exposed to.
It was nice to see an alternative to whats at the faire, and the performers were very approachable offstage. Spending considerable time for photos, and idle chitchat did not seem like an imposition.
A very fun ADULT night out, I am very hopeful they will do this same type of show again next year.

we were one of the first ones there, and was met by Danielle. She is the nicest and THE funniest Person I have ever met. I just love her to death. she is my very favorite of all the renfolk, besides Peter Suarez (of course!) I had a blast and would love to go again next year!

Welcome to FaireNews, Mike & Peggy, and thanks for letting us know you enjoyed the show. Your comments have been forwarded on to our RESCU contact so that they’ll know you appreciated their efforts.
We are hoping that they’ll put a similar show on in Florida this year. You can be sure the FaireNews crew will be there with bells on.
