- $20.00
- Our Price:
- $10.00
After a sold-out run in 2010, Tony Clifton returns to the stage of the legendary Comedy Store on the Sunset Strip for yet another unapologetically offensive comedy and music extravaganza to celebrate the 28th anniversary of the mysterious disappearance of Clifton alter-ego Andy Kaufman. Joined by his back-up band The Cliftones and his burlesque dancers The Cliftonette, the outrageous entertainer will hold his infamous Hooker Raffle, with one lucky audience member set to receive a round-trip flight from L.A. to Reno. There, the winner will head to the legal brothel known as Dennis Hof's World-Famous Moonlite Bunny Ranch for a free visit. A longtime supporter of Comic Relief, Clifton's credits include appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Late Show with David Letterman . Learn More

Very talented singer/actors made this a pleasant evening. I particularly fell for CARRIE STAUBER as Honey Rosenbaum. Her comic timing and acting kept me laughing throughout. HEIDI GODT as Mitzi Newhouse is intense and charming and energetic and sings beautifully. SYLVIA MACCALLA as Bette Anderson has a less rewarding role, but sings her socks off. I wasn't crazy about Jeffrey Rockwell as “the Piano Man”. Even shmarmy night club lotharios sing better, but he backed up the women with his piano and, though annoying, didn't hurt the performances of the Biutifuls.Written on Aug 29 2011

I thought the writing, singing, acting was totally entertaining and professional. Hochberg and the Beautifuls did a terrific job.Written on Aug 23 2011

Description
It’s 1966 in the Tonga Room Lounge of the Coconut Cabana Motel, and "The Beautifuls" — Mitzi, Honey and Bette — have been belting out four sets a night, five nights a week. They're good, they're bad, they're beautiful — and they're exhausted! This glamorous revue evokes the era of teased hair, sequined gowns, and jungle red nails as the girls sing Peggy Lee, Vikki Carr, Shirley Bassey and Eydie Gorme in a celebration of the best female ballads of '60s songwriting. The music enthralls even as onstage jealousies drive the divas to battle for the spotlight and move up the lounge ladder.
A hilarious bouffant pastiche billing itself as "an absolutely glamorous revue," Good, Bad But Beautiful evokes the era of teased hair, sequined gowns, and jungle red nails — whether it's "It Must Be Him," "The Way of Love," "Is That All There Is?" or a 19-song Broadway medley — the music enthralls even as onstage jealousies drive the divas to attempt to capture (or recapture!) the spotlight and move up the lounge ladder to the "Main Room."
Created and staged by Richard Hochberg, Good, Bad But Beautiful has had sold-out runs at Tatou Supper Club in Beverly Hills, Luna Park in West Hollywood and The Cinegrill at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, and was nominated for 3 LA Weekly awards, including Best Musical, Best Supporting Actor and Best Ensemble.
Good, Bad But Beautiful stars Heidi Godt as Mitzi Newhouse (Broadway lead in Mamma Mia), Carrie Stauber as Honey Rosenbaum, Sylvia MacCalla as Bette Anderson (Joanne in the first national tour of Rent), and Jeffrey Rockwell as “the Piano Man.”
