Bad art is a gift for the ages—not because it will ever hang in a museum for future generations to see, but because it can inspire such immediate, lively parodies. Such is the case for the soft-core porno fiction Fifty Shades of Grey by English writer E.L. James, which has given rise to the musical comedy revue SPANK! The Fifty Shades Parody. The touring show unabashedly aims low, thereby hitting its erogenous target. In brief, an author known as EBJ (Amanda Barker) writes and imagines a series of kinky scenarios enacted by Tasha (Michelle Vezilj) and Hugh (the ab-tastic Drew Moerlein). Created by Jim Millan, the show won’t have a long shelf-life, but if James is working on a sequel (Fifty Hues of Mauve?), you can be sure Millan is, too. Bachelorette parties take note: The Moore’s bar will be open before the show, and we recommend a Grey Goose martini. Through Sun. T. BOND
