REVIEWS
"Lingers in the mind."
- Nina Metz, Chicago Tribune (year in review)

"Red Hot Annie elegantly performed “Maude’s Sheet Dance” that utilized a couple of yards of gossamer instead of a fan-dancer’s ostrich plumes."
- J. Scott Hill, Chicago Stage Reviews

"Wham Bam Pam uproariously played Walter (John Goodman’s character), and did an oddly titillating bump-and-grind in which she first stripped out of her Walter fat suit before stripping off her lingerie."
- J. Scott Hill, Chicago Stage Reviews

"The show is more theater than burlesque, but the stripping is inserted masterfully."
- Lee Klawans, Examiner.com Chicago

"...it does work, and well. It is a great show!"
- Lee Klawans, Examiner.com Chicago

"The acting steals the show."
- Lee Klawans, Examiner.com Chicago

"The title alone might be reason enough to see this show, and let me tell you, it delivers on its promise."
- Nina Metz, Chicago Tribune

"'The Big Lebowski' may be an unlikely inspiration for burlesque, but the results are legitimately funny."
- Nina Metz, Chicago Tribune

"...there's something ingenious about the whole thing."
- Nina Metz, Chicago Tribune

"...there is something for everyone in this witty burlesque take-off."
- Scott C. Morgan, Windy City Times

"But what makes 'Rollin' Outta Here Naked' truly brilliant is the time and effort that has gone into the strip numbers."
- Scott C. Morgan, Windy City Times

"Vaudezilla's burlesque is loads of quirky fun."
- Scott C. Morgan, Windy City Times

"All the artists involved...have done their homework and crafted ingenious film-inspired routines and outfits right down to the pasties and G-strings."
- Scott C. Morgan, Windy City Times

"...the folks at Vaudezilla are paying homage to the unsung heroes of counter culture with stylized, absurdist bravado, which lovers of the movie will most certainly appreciate."
- Anna Pulley, Chicago Now (Sex and the Windy City)

"One of the big players on the Chicago Burlesque scene has outdone itself."
- Andrea Cordts, The ChiGuide

"By never claiming to be anything other than wonky fun, Vaudezilla sheds the desperate tone that shrouds other shows."
- Keith Griffith, Chicago Reader

"...a production that's uproarious, absurd, and almost incidentally sexy."
- Keith Griffith, Chicago Reader

"The revue captures the film's sun-baked zen...while offering the outrageous -- and oddly titillating -- spectacle of...Walter [played by Wham Bam Pam] stripping down to pasties and g-string."
- Keith Griffith, Chicago Reader

"The local resurgence of burlesque seems to be fueled less by leering demand than by a supply-side yearning for outlets for sexual expression. Vaudezilla Productions spares us both sides of the equation..."
- Keith Griffith, Chicago Reader
