Tennessee Williams-inspired vaudeville

Bananas Burlesque

or, “Are Straight People Okay?” — an unconventional look at familiar archetypes through burlesque, song, dance, drag, theater, and far too many banana jokes.

About the show

Love. Fate. Social expectations. Bananas.

Host and playwright Lefty Lucy introduces lovers known simply as “HE” and “SHE” as they sing, dance, and joke their way through the traps of social expectation in an attempt to defy fate and find freedom.

The show premiered in New Orleans as part of the Last Bohemia Fringe Festival during the New Orleans Tennessee Williams Literary Festival.
