Seattle Strip Clubs: Remember the Mammaries at The Little Red Studio
The play is a one man show written and performed by the previously mentioned bouncer Ron Richardson. Well, maybe one man show isn’t fair, it also features Kirsten Lauzon, but she spent the entirety of the play back lit behind a wide screen slithering her shadow like nobody’s business.

Big ups to that, it’s no easy feat and was appreciated.
