Last Friday I went to a Variety Show.  Yep, like The Sunny and Cher Comedy Hour, only this show was less Sunny and more Cher.  Imagine, if you will, if Cher were blonde and did a trapeze act while being silly, quirky, and funny.  And imagine if Cher was dressed like a conservative school teacher for half of the show, and then wore pasties for the other half of the show. 

Hosted by Tamara the Trapeze Lady, this weekly review is different every show.  The show I saw included death defying stunts with swords and rebar by Pure Cirkus, fun striptease and burlesque by both Tamara the Trapeze Lady and Miss Indigo Blue.  There was comedy, daredevil stunts, fire dancing, and a great performance by the girl pictured on the left who was one of my favorite acts of the evening. 

This is a weekly show that happens every Friday at the Columbia City Theater at 8pm.  Most of the performers are local performers, and it's great show to see for $20 ($25 at the door) in a beautiful old theater.   I suggest buying your tickets in advance.  Every seat in the house is a good seat, but I got a great table when I bought my tickets in advance last week.
