CURTAIN CALL: Our indie theater lookout for April 17-23

POSTED: Tuesday, April 17, 2012, 12:00 PM

Each week, Michael Gold breezes past those big-name theater companies to turn a spotlight on Philly's indie stages. This week: B. Someday's mature-eyes-only apocalyptic burlesque, bawdy drunkards are blown away by The Tempest and Camden Theatre Co. celebrates The Night of the Iguana.

A day after B. Someday Productions holds a fundraiser for its in-school theater outreach program, the company stages apocalyptic burlesque comedy The End of the World. Managing artistic director Michelle Pauls and actor Ed Miller star as journalists reporting on the Mayan-forecasted end of the world in the off-beat town of Kenzoville. With Philly burlesque staples Melissa Bang-Bang, Cherry Bomb (pictured) and Cookie Cutter on hand, things promise to quickly become both zany and risqué. Leave the kids at home.

April 18 to 22, 8 p.m., $18, Walking Fish Theatre, 2509 Frankford Ave., 215-427-9255, bsomeday.org.
