They Thought it Was Safe

I took my own advice last night. I went to the Hoover Theatre and saw “The PornoZombies”.
It was perverted, abnormal, sick, tainted, twisted and unnatural. It was exactly what it was meant to be; a perfectly wonderful experience. Most of the jokes hit the bullseye and those that didn’t at least hit the target.
The cast seemed to be enjoying the play as much as we, their audience, was. Evangeline Maynard was superb in her role as Detective Karla and her awesome energy kept the play up and humming. Peter Canavese was flawless and quite skilled, with his Twilight Zone-ish take on the Narrator.
After the perfectly timed intermission, we were treated to the unrestrained orgy of Act II. Though “The PornoZombies” is definitely not for the uptight, or children, I would have felt comfortable seeing it in the company of either my mother or my 18-year old daughter.
The Hoover Theatre has good seating and the oh so important, in the South Bay, air conditioning.
