The Fabulous Ladies of Fitness present: Cardio Cabaret: A Total Body Experience

With performances by: Tila Von Twirl, Double DJ, Lez BoBo the Clown, Thunder Davis, Mattrick Swayze and special guest star Cameron Esposito. Hosted by Jyldo. Followed by Fabulous Ladies of Fitness DJ set/dance partay.

This hour of performance power showcases artists who will make your head swim and your heart pound—their wild range of comedy, dance, burlesque, cheerleading, & drag will bend your brain and blow your mind, giving new meaning to the phrase “peak performance.” After the Cardio Cabaret warmup, we’ll go high-impact and begin to really feel the burn as the Fabulous Ladies spin their singular blend of 70s lite rock, 80s and 90s hiphop/R&B jamz, and the best pop hits of the last decade. You want to dance? Well, grooves cost. And right here with FLOF is where you start paying: in SWEAT.

Cameron Esposito is a nationally and internationally touring standup comic, a producer of the Lincoln Lodge (Chicago’s premier alternative comedy showcase) and the ringmaster for touring Chicago-based circus company El Circo Cheapo Cabaret. Cameron has appeared at Just For Laughs Chicago, the Aspen Rooftop Comedy Festival, and has been featured on WGN radio, afterellen.com, and the Logo television network.

MOVIEOKE!

Movieoke: (verb) To perform a classic movie scene for an audience, karaoke-style. Ex: “Did you see Karen movieoke? She totally acted the shit out of that Big Lebowski scene.” Movieoke is literally karaoke with movie scenes instead of music. Performers don costumes, take the mic and act out the movie scenes playing on the big screen behind them. Think there won’t be something that suits your liking??? Think again. There are over 200 scenes to choose from. So, put on a costume and Movieoke! Presented by the Vintage Theater Collective; created and hosted by Katy Collins. 1st Monday of every month.
