Despite its 19-plus rating, a male stripper parody show coming to Vancouver Island promises to be B次元官网网址渋nnocentlyB次元官网网址� naughty.

Ken Lawson, a member of the Comic Strippers, said that while he and his fellow B次元官网网址榮trippersB次元官网网址� only wear bow ties from the waist up, they provide playful fun that feels B次元官网网址渟neaky and a little bit cheekyB次元官网网址� without being overly salacious.

The Vancouver-based improvisational comedy troupe has B次元官网网址渇launted what they gotB次元官网网址� in national and international performances for the past decade that, as Lawson said, B次元官网网址渙nly seems to get better the older we get.B次元官网网址�

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 a very body-positive show B次元官网网址� We are all quite diverse in our appearance and represent a wide range of body types,B次元官网网址� he said. B次元官网网址淵ou donB次元官网网址檛 need to buy into societyB次元官网网址檚 norms of what weB次元官网网址檙e supposed to look like. Rock whatever you got B次元官网网址� letB次元官网网址檚 have a good time and celebrate that.B次元官网网址�

The comic said one of his favourite aspects of doing the shows is the depth of absurdity they allow themselves to go as they test out their B次元官网网址渃omedic chopsB次元官网网址� with each other.

And although his onstage B次元官网网址�80s hair-metal character allows him to wear spandex and eyeliner while B次元官网网址渏umping around on stage in front of hundreds of people, not knowing exactly whatB次元官网网址檚 going to happen,B次元官网网址� Lawson said he never gets nervous before shows.

B次元官网网址淪eems like a recipe for a disaster or a nightmare for most people B次元官网网址� but for us, we trust each other, we really listen to each other and we make each other look goodB次元官网网址�B次元官网网址� he said. B次元官网网址淲e go out there and build stories together and dance around like a bunch of fools.B次元官网网址�

The Nanaimo show on Friday, March 3, at the Port Theatre is part of the troupeB次元官网网址檚 revamped and refreshed tour, boasting new dances, songs and games.

Even though the troupe was able to hold some shows last year, Lawson said he sees 2023 as a return to their full-force productions.

B次元官网网址淚 think people have just been really hungry to not only congregate together but just laugh together B次元官网网址� WeB次元官网网址檝e always had an absolute love and enthusiasm for the show, but itB次元官网网址檚 like weB次元官网网址檝e been re-energized too.B次元官网网址�
