Grease might be the word, but LUBE is a twisted gay pop musical comedy and love story.
Thursday, October 10 at Laurie Beechman Theatre
"Funny, bawdy, and just slightly absurdist... LUBE is more fun than watching the 1980 movie Xanadu while stoned. Even when the cast isn’t singing the R-rated parodies, the show gets nonstop laughs from both its sight gags and from the comedic talents of the cast, who know the power of wordless acting via facial expressions and body language. You’ll be laughing so hard." -- Jed Ryan, Lavender After Dark
After a critically acclaimed debut this summer, Ike Avelli, the writer, producer and star of the nationally acclaimed comedy "50 Shades of Gay," brings you an encore of LUBE, a hysterical/twisted love story wrapped around iconic pop songs mixed with some new parodies you will never get out of your head! LUBE goes where the iconic musical Grease never went! LUBE will be performed for one night only, Thursday, October 10 at 7pm.
