Pros: innovative take on a familiar story; fun for a group
Cons: very limited seating area; R-rated content may not be for everyone
Summary: Wear your dancing shoes and your flashiest tube tops and leisure suits to this interactive theater production. Leave your inhibitions and preconceptions at the door of Club El Flamingo, a throwback to the excess and glitz of the 70's.

Pros: funky music, dancing, audience interaction
Cons: smoking, lame plot
Summary: Touted as a modern version of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, the Donkey Show might be more appropriately titled "King Rear" or, perhaps, "As You Like It." I bought tickets for this off-broadway show, thinking that my father and I would be ... read more

Pros: Music was good.
Cons: Would not recommend. Actually got bored after 45 minutes.

Pros: You can listen to disco and say you saw Shakespeare.
Cons: This one is expensive, glittery, loud, and vapid.
