R A P I D R I V E R A R T S stage preview From the Risky to the Risque In addition to its own critically acclaimed productions, North Carolina Stage Company has hosted some of the most interesting touring shows in downtown Asheville. This month, the intimate, 100- seat theatre plays host to two fantastic shows: the fascinating one-man original play Rattlesnake, and the New York City-based Sugar Shack Burlesque. Sugar Shack Burlesque performs for one night only on Cinco de Mayo, Thursday May 5 at 8 p.m. The show stars international burlesque performers RunAround Sue and Bunny Love, and features many of North Carolina’s most talented burlesque dancers. International performers and burlesque darlings of NYC, Bunny Love and RunAround Sue are missing their southern roots. With a few costumes, a handful of pasties, a bit of glitter, two guitars and a uke these two burlqy babes are hitting the road and joining forces with the South’s most sizzling shows to spread the burlesque love. The very next weekend, May 12-14, playwright and actor John Hardy performs his acclaimed one-man-show Rattlesnake at NC Stage. Rattlesnake is a play unlike anything you’ll ever see. It is a unique event. Funny and engaging; harrowing and intense. Rattlesnake will grab you by the collar and Sugar Shack Burlesque John Hardy performs his one-man-show Rattlesnake. BY AMANDA LESLIE won’t let go. The story takes us from the Texas prairie to Paris, France and back again. Sixteen characters - all played by one actor. Playwright and actor John Hardy has enjoyed a thirty-year career as an actor, playwright and director. Many theatre-goers will know him from his work with the world famous Barter Theatre in Abingdon, VA.
