PEEPSHOW starring Holly Madison

Naughty nursery rhymes

By Caroline Fontein

NOTE: Holly Madison will be on vacation April 30 - May 6, 2012. Angel Porrino from the E! network reality TV show "Holly's World" and "Absinthe" at Caesars Palace will be guest starring in Madison's absence. 

"Holly's World" and "Girls Next Door" star Holly Madison stars in Peepshow, a sexy revue based on nursery rhymes told with a naughty twist. The show features highly-stylized, modern burlesque-style dancing and tantalizing striptease performed by a cast of gorgeous dancers.

Developed by Tony award-winning director/choreographer Jerry Mitchell and BASE Entertainment, Peepshow demonstrates the art of tease mixed with humor, a high-energy contemporary soundtrack and all of the glamorous production elements found only in Vegas.

More than just steamy dance numbers, Peepshow tells a story of sexuality and empowerment that all women can relate to. It begins with a black-and-white video of a woman, played by Madison, who longs to find her perfect match. After a hard day of work Madison's character, "Bo Peep," drifts off to sleep reading a fairytale story and finds herself lost in a dream much like the pages of her book.

The character "Peep Diva" is the mistress of ceremonies and "Bo Peep's" guide and mentor as she meets different characters throughout her journey. Each scene is themed with a different nursery rhyme and a popular song like Aerosmith's "Pink," Cristina Aguilara's "Aint No Other Man" and Ginuwine's "Pony." The catchy lyrics tell a narrative while the dancers perform both covered and topless routines.

Large screens appear on the stage throughout the show that display imagery and clues to the audience about which fantasy characters are going to appear next. It's fun and exciting to watch Mitchell's sexy rendition of all the nursery rhymes you thought you knew.

A large pumpkin rises from beneath the stage for "Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater" while the male vocalist sings "Feeling Good." The pumpkin rotates revealing Peter's wife dressed in a glittering, green burlesque-style costume. She performs a sultry dance and stripper pole routine that seems to defy gravity.

When "Peep Diva" and "Bo Peep" meet a character named Wicked Wendy the dancers perform a racy routine choreographed to Kelis' "Milk Shake." Through the song Wicked Wendy shows other women how they too can be ultra sexy. The act ends with a big splash when Wicked Wendy and two other dancers climb into a giant wagon with a see-through tub of milk on top of it and tease the audience by giving them a peek of how milk has done their body good.

Next, "Rub-a-dub-dub" appears on the screens and a bathtub appears on stage along with Bo Peep. Women go wild as a male performer with dark hair and rippling muscles emerges from the tub dripping with water. He performs an aerialist routine from a rope hanging above the stage while casually flirting with Bo Peep and enticing her to join him for a bath.

Bo Peep's exciting journey and the tricks she learns from Peep Diva help transform her from a timid girl into a confident and sexy woman. Dazzling costumes, sultry dancing and awe-inspiring production elements, make this one sexy show that you will want to take more than just a peep at.
