Detail for Hotsie Totsie - a Tribute to Sophie Tucker : Aug 14 2005 - Aug 28 2005
[an error occurred while processing this directive]
Get ready, Chicago, the " Last of the Red Hot Mamas" is back!! Sophie Tucker, the brassy burlesque and vaudeville entertainer was a Chicago legend spanning the better part of the 20th century. She'd perform to sell out crowds at the famed Chez Paree and the Oriental Theater, belting out tunes like "After You've Gone", and her signature song, "Some of These Days". With a career spanning vaudeville, radio, talkies, and even television (Remember Sophie on the Ed Sullivan Show in the early 1960s?), Tucker remained a star for decades. Although Sophie herself hasn't been with us since the Sixties, thanks to modern day burlesque singer, Carla Gordon, Miss Tucker is making a "return engagement" to Chicago. Her film debut in Honky Tonk had her sing 'I Don't Want To Get Thin' and 'I'm The Last Of The Red Hot Mamas', the latter her billing for the rest of her life. Carla Gordon especially enjoys performing these tunes in her Sophie Tucker tribute show, "Hotsie Totsie," which will be presented August 14 at 5:00PM and August 28 at 7:00PM at Davenport's Cabaret (1383 North Milwaukee Avenue, Chicago, 773) 278-1830). - Alotta, 07/26/2005
