My overall impression

Definitely going to see this show again. Totally the reason Fringe shows rock. It says one-woman show but I feel like I saw a show with a bunch of characters. It’s set in Las Vegas 1955. I love Vegas, and thought I knew Vegas, but here I was learning about the Moulin Rouge which I googgled after and it was a real casino owned by Joe Frazier the boxer and it was the first and only integrated casino. The two main characters are hilarious and have a very real feel, a couple of women who are both headed to Vegas to find fame and fortune, one as a magician, the other as a burlesquer. I even got angry when the magician started yelling at the BJ. Great story, great characters, so much fun.
