The Willie's Wenches Family-Friendly Variety Hour!
Description:
Beautiful cheerleaders in boots and corsets, wild musical parodies, and spontaneously combustible comedy! These ladies bring you wacky audience interactive game shows to mad-capped teenage sci-fi hi-jinx (and more fun than a barrel of Ewoks on Red Bull)! From Shakespeare to Star Wars, we want YOU in the front row for fun! Join us in the Family Pavilion as we celebrate the spirit of comedy with kids of all ages!
Sillier than Weird Al! Geekier than Jonathan Coulton! Less evil than Dick Cheney! The only recording artist to appear on both NPR's Sound and Spirit and The Dr. Demento Show, Tom Smith combines high-energy folk rock, SF/fantasy, popular culture, progressive politics, cartoon voices, unbelievably bad puns, and the occasional recipe into a show you will never forget.
