The 'Best of the San Francisco Fringe' hit returns . . . LOUNGE-
ZILLA! Everybody's favorite gay bitch is back for one night only!
'LOUNGE-ZILLA!', the internationally-acclaimed, hilariously naughty
cabaret spoof that just took the San Francisco Fringe by storm with
rave reviews, a bucketful of awards and packed houses, returns to the
City by the Bay for one night only as part of the 'Best of the
Fringe' fundraiser at San Francisco's EXIT Theatre.
'LOUNGE-ZILLA!', the only out-of-town act chosen as 'Best of the
Fringe 2005', is an award-winning atomic blast of TWISTED music,
POLITICALLY-INCORRECT comedy and an OUTRAGEOUS X-RATED 3D finale that
must be seen to be believed!
Features Filipino funnyman Fiely A. Matias as the campy, self-
proclaimed gay diva of cheesy lounge acts and NYC-born comedy
songmeister/accompanist Dennis T. Giacino as everyone's favorite
Scary Manilow, 'LOUNGE-ZILLA!' has toured internationally to
prestigious venues and festivals in New York City, Boston, Seattle,
Chicago, Washington DC, Orlando, Provincetown, Miami, Atlanta,
Montreal QC, Vancouver BC, Toronto ON, Prague and beyond!
