Oh my goodness! A clever show with heart - and a fabulous message too! Someone get Oprah on the phone.

This kid not only "had it" and "flaunted it" he "showed it" too! (I'm referring to his awsome talent... as a clever lyricist people!!!)

My friend and I went expecting to be entertained, however, as he pointed out, he was truly able to make you reflect and his message was as true as always. Two glowing thumbs up. It not only tickeled our funny bone, it massaged our prostate right on through to the finale!

A little naughty, maybe not for general audiences, but we found it very clever and funny and entertaining. The theatre is a hidden gem, comfortable seats, great sightlines.

What a pity that the show was not better attended! The altered lyrics to popular showtunes were clever and witty. Tom is very talented and made the time fly by. Quite an entertainer. If it were to play here longer, the word of mouth alone would probably fill the house. We plan on going back again next week with friends!

More Information About iTom_shuffle

Description

<p>Since 1997, award-winning San Francisco lyricist-playwright-singer-dancer-actor-comedian and "musical comedy cabaret porn star" Tom Orr has been entertaining Bay Area audiences with his smart, satirical parodies, i.e. "Dirty Little Showtunes!", his critically-acclaimed, crowd-pleasing cult hit revue that's had successful runs in San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Houston & the 2006 Minneapolis Fringe Festival. A native son of the San Fernando Valley, he is making his Los Angeles debut after 15 years of professional theatre on both coasts. </p> <p>Variously called "the Lenny Bruce of musical parody" and "the love child of Al Parker and Dorothy Parker," Orr is known for baring all (or nearly all) in his bawdy burlesque turns in Dirty Little Showtunes!, Howard Crabtree's Whoop-Dee-Doo!; his previous solo act, Of Me I Sing, Baby!; as "The Perky Little Porn Star" in Naked Boys Singing! (2000 San Francisco and 2001 Provincetown casts); as well as for his quirky quick-change character work in G-rated fare such as Mack & Mabel, Li'l Abner, One Touch of Venus, Pardon My English, Plain & Fancy, Shopping! The Musical, Simply Sondheim: A 75th Birthday Salute and Trog!</p> <p>He most recently made a splash in the infamous shower scenes of the hit Take Me Out at SF's New Conservatory Theatre Center, where iTom_shuffle will appear in Summer 2008.</p> <p>As a relative newcomer to the adult film industry, known as Tom Lazzari, he was nominated for a 2006 GayVN Award, the industry's "Oscar," for his scene in TitanMedia's "Closed Set: Titan Stage One." Successfully conquering an unfortunate crystal meth addiction three years ago, Orr/Lazzari has become an outspoken advocate in the fight against speed use in the gay community, writing songs about his recovery and contributing his time and talents to a variety of outreach campaigns, including the Stonewall Project and www.tweaker.org's "Hot Sex Without Crystal? Hell Yeah!" and Better World Advertising's "Resist Meth" sites.</p>
