SpeakEasily in The SF WEEKLY!
Who knew! I guess we are pretty kitsch...

Oh, You Kid
Vintage kitsch onstage
SUN 3/6
You just gotta love a revue that claims to offer "Weimar perversions at rock-bottom Oakland prices," particularly when it pays a visit to your neck of the woods. The sad demise of the East Bay venue the Mile High Club has left "SpeakEasily" without a regular home for its slate of performances that pay tribute to the Jazz Age: guys strumming ukuleles, burlesque girls in rolled stockings, that sort of thing. But Oakland's loss is S.F.'s gain. Tonight "SpeakEasily" invades the Madrone Lounge with a neat lineup of gimcracks: dancing, prancing rent-boy Roky Roulette; the Indra's retro-Hollywood striptease and song (she does a great Dietrich); and the rentable attentions of the Meter Dancers, who'll spin you around the dance floor for a couple of bucks. Whoop it up at 9 p.m. at the Madrone, 500 Divisadero (at Fell), S.F. Admission is $4-6; call 241-0202 or visit www.audrawolfmann.net. -- Joyce Slaton
