This is like the old 50's variety shows back when tv was live. I hope there is more of this stuff, This is a gem.

Very funny piece! Burlesque is alive and very, VERY well, thanks to Julie and Bunny, et al!
This was "live at the Zipper Theater".... is it still playing? Where do I get tickets?? Are there DVDs ????
I can only imagine how the rest of the show went.

Subject: This or That! in the Theater
"This or That!" just finished a run of almost 6 months at the Belt theater in NYC. The run ended with two shows at the Belt's larger sister theater, the Zipper theater next door. This clip is from the April 15 show. All contestants are chosen from the live theater audience, and they 'win' the chance to pick a 'curtain', behind which lurks either 'a great burlesque act' or 'a truly whacked act'. Either way it's a genuine good time for everyone involved. I expect that many more clips will make their way on line.

What a fun video. Looks like its from some sort of theatrical adult TV game show. Would love to know where it's playing, cause I would have loved to be in that audience. Or at least know where I could see that rest of the TV show this came from.
Six near naked ladies passing a gumball only using their mouths, while a bump and grind band plays in the background. A great setup with a great tag. I love old style Burlesque and this clip has a lot of that old Burlesque feel to it.
The production work looks suprisingly good, not just a single shaky camcorder in the audience kind of thing. More than one camera was at this show and the editing follows that action well.
It isn't too long, at almost 4 minutes, so check it out.
