The Boofont Sisters Friday, December 18, 2009
Nothing says the holidays like sequins, rhinestones and wigs, and the Boofont Sisters don that gay apparel in JESUS CHRIST! It's Christmas!, a variety extravaganza about two sisters trying to cope with the most wonderful time of the year. Ruby and Vicky Boofont's sixth-annual yuletide show includes musical numbers like "Turkey Lurkey Time"; a puppetry tribute to Dolly Parton; a Dickens parody called "The Little Drummer Boi"; and a celebration of the workers of WalMart. Also on the guest list: fellow drag entertainers Tammie Brown, Willam Belli, and Miss Barbie Q. In Ruby's own words: "We try to bring a Broadway-style show to the basement of a Mexican restaurant." It's like Real Housewives of Atlanta, adds Vicky, "if they had good wigs." Cavern Club Theater at Casita del Campo, 1920 Hyperion Ave., Silver Lake; Fri.-Sun., Dec. 18-20, 8 p.m.; $25. (323) 969-2530, www.acteva.com/go/boofont. (Originally published in L.A. Weekly, December 18, 2009.)
