Due to transboral electronic currents and the alignment of several clotting factors, this Re-Cap is late. I know, all was sadness and woe, but now comes the divine light! Can I get an Amen For the acrobatic beauties of Gravity Plays Favorites?!
Testify! It was a vision of Heaven and Hell last week, as the Gravity duo played out complex metaphysical arguments with pasties and glitter.
It's about the nature of Sin. Or Free will. Or something. Just go with it.

It's a steamy Saturday afternoon in New York City. Down West Broadway comes a horde of half-naked dancers, women strapped to balloons, donut eating cavemen, gigantic floating drag queen heads, dancing dynamite sticks, and screaming black clad revolutionaries.
A psychotic break? An ether-induced delusion? Nay, it's the Deitch Art Parade and Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art was there.
Art Monkey's represent! Molly Crabapple, Lady Lovely, and Pandora where half-naked showgirls while Mr, Syd, Fred and Peter got to be beret wearing Art Monkeys (with tails!) in black turtlenecks. In 88 degree heat. While Marching.

Mein Lieblings! Madams und mein Hierrs! Willkomen, Bienvenue, and welcome to ze Dr. Sketchy's Re-cap!
Outside it is…summer, but in here it's so…cool? Okay, this isn't working. None the less, this week Dr. Sketchy's turned the Lucky Cat into the Kit-Kat Club and enjoyed the decadance of the Weimar Republic! A far-away time where rising inflation created a dizzy anything-goes atmosphere where the dwellers of a once-great empire performed for rich tourists! Funny how distant the past can seem…
And now, two ladies!
Gal Friday!
und Amber Ray! It's a voluptious panic!
Jac Bowie with the new Dr. Sketchy: SYDNEY website! it's all slick and shiny!
