The Cherdonna & Lou Show
Century Ballroom presents The Cherdonna and Lou Show, an evening inspired by celebrities, celebrity impersonators, and Seattle DIY fame. Cherdonna and Lou combine brains, brawn, and contemporary dance moves (did we mention celebrities?) as they lip sync, piano sync, and tap sync their way through the decades in no particular order. In addition to acts of brand spanking newness, the couple will perform classic favorites from Century's Frolic, including Xanadu and their infamous Sonny and Cher.
Celebrity guests include:
* 10/16: Orkestar Zirkonium
* 10/23: The Toy Boats
* 10/30: Tyler Potts
* 11/2: Rhinestones
* 11/6: Steven Arntson
* 11/13: Miss Indigo Blue
* 11/20: Nova Devonie
Cherdonna Shinatra and Lou Henry Hoover met in 1984 in the back of Madonna's tour bus. Lou Henry loves a nice glass of ros, dances the nightclub two step, and collects sugar spoons. Cherdonna has a pet panther, likes toast with mustard, and summers in Weehawken.
