Peep Show Male

At "Lip Service," A Gay Bar With Go-Go Boys And Back Rooms, A Group of Lovable Regulars Meet Nightly To Pump Each Other Up And Tear Each Other Down Along With Any New Faces That Dare To Enter And Play.

"How weird is tonight going to get?

I guess the sky's the limit!!!"

Peep Show Male, a new musical comedy set in a gay New York City go-go boy bar, features an original book by Dave McCracken and musical gems mined from the heyday of Vaudeville and Burlesque. The bar is filled with a crazy collection of regulars that really let loose, derisively ripping into each other and anyone else who crosses their neon doorway, including a young shy guy just looking for a drink and a lost newlywed couple from Minnesota. The Act 1 dance highlight is "The Senator Craig Stomp," an homage to the illustrious Senator from Idaho who put a whole new spin on "potty training." You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want to go in the back with a go-go boy! Wanna watch?

Playwright Dave McCracken's new play, Fever, was described by Martin Denton of NYTheare.com as "Heady, inspiring, fascinating and important. A little subversive but also timely and resonant. Potent and necessary stuff. Well worth the time of any theatre-goer in search of some intellectual stimulation."

Back Stage hailed Fever as having "compelling notions on good and evil."

McCracken's recent adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's Ghosts was described by Prof. Marvin Carlson in the annual journal of the Ibsen Society of America as "Truly outstanding. I felt myself deeply moved." The Norway Times wrote that DJM's Ghosts was "a fascinating experience. This adaptation is truly riveting."

McCracken has also written for the stage with the New York productions of Tune In Tomorrow, a new theater-of-the-absurd play, and the drama I Owe You My Life. McCracken is a proud member of The Glines.
