An audience intent on seeing a production featuring 4 Poofs and a Piano expects nothing less than a stage furnished with a furry, animal-print-covered piano, fairy lights and a disco ball; and so the scene is set for one highly-homosexual hour.
The Poofs appear to the tune of '9-5,' outfitted in heels, a tutu, fishnet stockings (nice legs there, honey) and leopard print pants (a special treat for the front row)—this the first of several entertaining costume changes.
They keep all of the ladies laughing and the men amused with their diva-tasic antics and crude but commendable songs (blow-up doll included) like 'Where Have All the Real Men Gone (to Scotland!)', and 'I Love Porn (in the morn),' the latter of which is accompanied by some tap dancing because they “like porn on tap.” Obviously.
Another giggle-inducing number is done impromptu-style with suggestions from the crowd to compose a hit love song using the ingredients of elbows, passion and sleet. The final medley of comically-amended showtunes (every showtune, ever) is performed ever-so-fabulously with some fun pokes (no pun intended) to today’s brand of reality showbiz stars.
Good fun for all who appreciate some honest-to-goodness penis humour put to song, and don’t we all?
4 Poofs and a Piano: Business as Usual, Pleasance One @ Pleasance Courtyard, Aug 3-28, 6pm
