...explain. At a base level, the Pudding Show is base: the humor is low, the puns are relentless and the men are never as pretty in tights and brassieres as women would be in their place. Still, year-in and year-out, the house is packed, the show travels to Bermuda and the budget reaches astronomical heights (this year, roughly...
While "Tea for Three" was slightly over the top, it was not atypical of the humor. At times during the show, it seemed as though every line out of someone's mouth concerned genitalia and/or having sexual intercourse. The majority of the lines of Newt Erd (Bryan Leach), for example, the castrated detective bull-dog, revolve around his conspicuous lack of testicles. Typical of his blunt retorts, Newt responds to one of the characters in Act II, "Actually, I have no sack." But that was clear by the bandage sewn onto his costume (and his lines throughout...
...flee to relief in humor, but it is a bitter, jeering kind. Clinton will remain a laughingstock of e-mail and late-night television unless and until he bombs another pharmacy. That will only turn the humor darker. I try to recapture my old admiration for the man.

...death (Judy Evans Greer) into a fox goddess. A teen twist on the old Frankenstein-Pygmalion plot is as familiar as last week, when it was called She's All That. (And a decade ago, it was the evil-teen classic Heathers.) Writer-director Stein flirts with black humor but, alas, never goes all the way. As for McGowan, she has the buxom wantoness and smartly cruel mouth to be a retro indie pinup, but if she doesn't choose her films more wisely, she'll end up as a perpetual gonna...
...very aggressive what I do. I think humor is aggressive. It's not that feminine. When I started, I was very un-feminine on stage. I tried to hide my body on-stage. But as the years went by, I wanted to be more feminine. I don't know what you can make of that. I've been doing this thing called the Alexander technique. Have you ever heard of that? It's an alignment of the spine, and I've been doing it for almost three years. So since I started doing stand-up, I've literally learned...
