So You Think You Can Pinch America’s Next Top Bottom of Talent Reality show burlesque. When Pinchbottom puts a gaggle of gorgeous burlesque performers in a house on a desert island in a bus on the road in a boardroom on a boat at a circus with a dancing bachelor idol apprentice and someone else’s wife’s nanny’s washed-up celebrity chef and Cory and forces them to compete competitively for the title of “Top Most Best Biggest Everything Ever for all time 2009”, what will happen? There’s only one thing you can be sure of… it’s going to be sexy World premiere!

Pinchbottom’s Greatest Hits: The Pinch Brothers in the Bawdy House. The quarterly “Pinchbottom’s Greatest Hits” series kicks off with (of all things) Pinchbottom’s greatest hit: The Marx Brothers homage, “The Pinch Brothers in The Bawdy House”. When THE PINCH BROTHERS (also sisters) are hired to save an ailing theater, they do so by converting it into a Bawdy House, complete with ribald comedy, risqué magic, and of course, burlesque, burlesque, burlesque! But on opening night, everything goes wrong — buttons keep popping, pants keep dropping, and the schtick keeps getting schtickier. Can they get through the show with their clothes intact? Nope.
