LOUNGERIE: THE SHOW Five characters on the road (or on stage):

• Missy Elenina Sao Curaçao, primadonna and lead vocals, is gaudiliy dressed and reminds the character of the chanteuse from Naples.
• Ginger Ale Falca, guitarist, plays also the role of the ‘presenter’, introducing the themes and managing the dalogues.
• Emi Dry Di, choir leader, is the mischievous head of the backing vocals, a comic trio who sings, acts, dances and interacts with the audience.
• Gin Fizz Muzzi, choreographer and backing vocals, is the naive and clawnish character of the trio
• Katia Cognac, backing vocals, is “the belle of the ball”, a snobbish and proud girl.

The show is mostly witty and comic, made of original songs and short dialogues. The aim of the show is to recreate an imaginary living room at the side of the road (or stage), reminding the cabaret, the italian TV of the 60s and 70s, the American Jingles of the 50s, the Comedy of Art with its different personalities. The actors interact with them and with the audience, rivisiting the stereotypes of the modern age from an ironic point of view. The songs are enriched by vocal games, puns, rhymes, gags, silly dances and some pseudo-musical instruments. The dialogues are built like old “reclames”, through nonsenses and word games. The sentences bounce quickly from one character to another, causing a sensation of dizziness in the audience. All characters are well dressed, in a colorful and elegant way, vaguely inspired by the fashion of the 50s and 60s, and they all drink blue water.
