Lolly P. Jones is, “a delectable Dickless Tracey” in a detective tale mimicking the film noir and pulp fiction genres. One Dickless Tracey will tackle three murder mysteries in this fast-talking, over-the-top performance that’s bound to make you slap your knees in laughter. Evidence of this lies in the fact that the show is created by the masterminds behind Six Quick Chicks. Writer and performer Liesel Knievel is accompanied by composer and jazz pianist Leonie Cohen as they uncover secrets in Shanghai, Nashville and, “the cutthroat kitchens of competitive baking”. It’s a little bit cabaret, a little bit hard boiled crime fiction and whole lotta LOL-ly. There’s really no excuse to miss this Mardi Gras femme fatale, especially in the relaxed atmosphere at The Oxford Hotel. Gather a group and make your mid-week drink a memorable one. (KS)
