So far, I've told you about a handful of the many prizes on tap for the NYC Clash of the Trivia Champions (nine days away!)—the Gutter, Babeland, UCB Theatre. Lest we forget one of the BQT's standby prizes: theater tickets.
Yo
u've heard me talk ad infinitum about The 39 Steps, but (a) it's that good and (b) they keep offering us tickets. So I'll keep taking them and giving them to you. We got a pair in the haul for the Clash. Plus…
— Stomp. Oh, yes, It's been playing at the Orpheum Theater in the East Village for what seems like forever (though I did see the original production of Little Shop of Horrors in that space in the '80s; first musical I really loved), a seemingly impossible feat, considering the energy those performers expend. Nonstop choreographed dance and percussion. If this show doesn't excite you, you have no pulse. Video preview:
— The Gazillion Bubble Show. This I have not seen, so maybe I'll steal these tickets. "The first and only multimillion dollar stage production created by using bubble media," it's billed as. I mean, come on! It's fucking bubbles! How can you resist that? Sure, the website prominently features a quote from Regis Philbin, but otherwise, this is amazing! Here's head bubblemaster, Fan Yang, in action:That and so much more. But you can't win unless you play. Register, register, register!
