Best Nouveau Vaudeville
Jerkus Circus
Oddball sexuality and a slaphappy caboodle of raw talent makes JERKUS CIRCUS a fantasyland for creepster hipsters, horny carnies, art fags, fart hags, and connoisseurs of real-deal performance art that's fueled by a few puffs on a unicorn bong. The Steamy Bohemians' bi-curious variety show (happening quarterly at Lizard Lounge in Cambridge and Ralph's Chadwick Square Diner in Worcester) has featured the sweet cream of Boston's artistic crop, including Black Cat Burlesque, the Human Floor, Babes in Boinkland, Robby Roadsteamer, the Boston Typewriter Orchestra, Evan O'Television, and, of course, the Steamies themselves. Check out Jerkus Circus as part of the Alt-Com! alternative-comedy festival, at 8 pm on May 9 at the Burren.
