* * * * * A Gina Gershon Sock Puppet > Sasha McNeal, one of the show's writers and puppeteers, admits that it > takes a twisted mind to dream up the idea of performing “Showgirls” with > sock puppets, let alone pull it off. But once the idea had been broached, > the group couldn't ignore its comedic potential. “I think that as actors we > find it amusing because (the movie) is just so bad,” she says. “And you can > get away with so much more with sock puppets. If it were just ourselves > redoing 'Showgirls,' no one would care.” > Gotta see it to believe it [1] Showgirls. [2] Sock puppets. [3] I'm sorry, I just can't wrap my brain around the concept. Too bad it's only showing in Chicago.
