As precursor to Thrillpeddlers' spring show, "Flaming Sin: London's Grand Guignol", The Hypnodrome proudly presents our resident wild-man Harmon Leon as he revs up his new one-man show (bound later this month for Ireland's prestigious Galway Comedy Festival). Called a cross between Michael Moore and "South Park", Harmon has performed at comedy festivals around the world, appeared on The Howard Stern Show, Penn & Teller's "Bullshit", "The Jamie Kennedy Experiment", VH1, Court TV, "Blind Date", as well as the BBC and is the author of six award-winning humor books, the most recent being, National Lampoon's "Road Trip USA".
PLUS! The Hypnodrome's reunion for the fabulous Cockettes! That's right, on March 15th original members of San Francisco's best and brightest Ridiculous Theatre revue troupe come together offering up clips and quips from Rumi Missabu's one-man memoir "A Cocktail of Glamour and Anarchy" bound for it's own European tour, readings and signings by "Sweet Pam" Tent of her gripping yarn "Midnight at The Palace: My Life as a Fabulous Cockette", Harlo (an original "Plaster-Caster", loveable niece to Eva Braun and the inspiration for Miss Piggie) and Fayette Hauser (sharing her personal collection of Cockette's photos and lurid true-tales). Rumi and Fayette return on March 17th to celebrate St. Patrick's Day along with Harmon, The Indra and The Lonely Doll. We'll also be treated to Dead Channels' vintage shorts in a special post-show program aptly named Tales from the Bottle: A Boozer's Cathedral .
The Hypnodrome has also added two new Turkish Corner Shock Boxes, in which couples may bask in decadent languor while enjoying the show. Other Shock Boxes include Heaven and Hell, the Pharaoh's Tomb, and the Padded Cell. The theater's popular private Shock Box seats offer the same opportunity for illicit trysting that was once a feature of the Parisian Thtre du Grand Guignol-with added special effects as a nod to the 1950s horror movie gimmicks of William Castle.
