ONLINE GAMBLING AND CASINO GUIDE

Tonight I went off, off, off, off, off, and off some more, off Broadway.  I found myself at the Harmon Theater in the Miracle Mile of Shops over next to Planet Hollywood.  I went to see the show Magic’s a Drag.

You know I’m mourning the loss of all the drag shows.  They are closing up right and left.  But now we have Magic’s a Drag.  Which is, you guessed it, a magic show in drag.  Their first bit of magic is to be located where Lucky Chengs used to be.

The Harmon Theater is actually on Harmon Street.  I know, go figure, huh?  You think it is in the shopping area of the Miracle Mile like the rest of the theaters, but you have to leave the mall and go out to the street to get into this theater.

When you go in, they make you pose with one of the ‘girls’ for a photo.  They tell you it is part of the show so you’ll do it.  I joined a married couple who didn’t want to do it either.  So somewhere there is a photo of the three party poopers.  They actually sell you the photo after the show if you want to buy it.  Rumor has it, it might end up on the Internet if you don’t.  Most of the crowd had a great time getting their photo taken with one of the girls.  She makes sure your hand goes where it shouldn’t be so now I know what a fake boob feels like.  It is sort of like Styrofoam.

I was seated next to some locals.  They smoked too so I liked them.  Actually, they were a nice, retired, married couple who live on the north side of town.  Bob was the hubby part of that team.

Now Bob was having entirely too much fun for a married guy and if I were Betty, I’d be worried.  Actually, I don’t know if his wife’s name is Betty, I’m just making that up.  But Bob’s name I know because Cashetta, the star of the show, must have said it a hundred times.

Betty and I got to talking as we waited.  Both of us wanted to mug these drag queens and steal their bodies.  Wow.  I’d kill for a butt like that.  And legs!  And how do they do their make-up so nicely?  These are the kind of chicks that could finally teach me to be a lady.  Maybe I should show up early one night and ask for some make-up and work out tips.

The show starts with a short movie on the big screen.  Cashetta is finding her confidence, thanks to the help of a ‘fairy’.  You’ll recognize the fairy from that Queer Eye show.  There was also another famous guy in the show, Graham Norton.  He has a talk show in the UK.  This little movie gets you laughing pretty good for the start of the magic show.

Cashetta comes out in all her fabulous glory and talks with people in the audience.  She is really pretty funny and puts every one in a party mood before she starts the magic show.

Bob was first to get on stage with her.  He was pretty eager to do so.  What a ham.  Cashetta had a pretty good time with him.  The first thing she did was dress him up a bit.

Then she had him help her do a rope trick.  She said she’s been doing tricks since she was a young girl.

Keith was next.  Oh, poor, poor Keith.  I could see him blushing from the second row back.  She gave this guy a pretty hard time.  He picked a card from the deck, wrote his name on it and then folded it up and gave it back to her.

She searched and searched him looking for that card.

After checking all his pockets, she was sure it was down the front of his pants, so she made him do the searching this time.

No, it wasn’t there. She did eventually find the card, but you’ll have to go to the show to see where it actually was.  The audience was in hysterics.  Keith, not so much, getting redder by the minute.  But he was a great sport about the whole thing while his buddies roared with laughter.

The last guy looked as straight as they come, but every guy he was with wasn’t so straight looking.  I don’t remember his name, so we’ll call him Bruce.

Bruce got to put on a sparkly jacket.  Cashetta was tied up with a rope.  Then Bruce and Cashetta got into a big curtain for a while.

When the curtain was dropped, Cashetta was wearing the sparkly jacket, but still had the rope on.  We all cheered, of course!

The show is full of innuendo, but I wouldn’t call it vulgar by any means.  It is good light hearted fun and everyone I could see was having a blast.  Well, except for one lady who maybe was taken there against her will.

Drinks are expensive.  It cost $6 for my glass of club soda, but I didn’t mind.  This is a very small place so they have to make money somehow.  Tickets for the show are only $21.95 per person, VIP tickets are $38.45 and that VIP pass gives you free cocktails.  For tickets call the Harmon Theater at 702-836-0836.
