| - A while back, a friend of mine got tickets to "Carly's Angels", a musical variety show showcasing three of Calgary's most beautiful, most talented and most hilarious drag queens. I was lucky enough to get my grubby little hands on two of those tickets, because the shows tend to sell out MONTHS in advance.
The show occurs in Club Paradiso, the upstairs. It started around nine, and our group ordered a few appetizers and sat back waiting for the show. Carly herself came out, resplendent in a shiny dress and totally gorgeous and TALL. She was snarky and honest and wonderful. The crowd was mostly women with some gay and straight men thrown into the mix. The jokes Carly got on those suckers were the best of the night. Actually, she sent Zingers out to the whole audience.
There was lot's of Liza and Cher, and Carly and her two angels were great and super funny. I loved how they got everyone involved, and Club Paradiso was packed but small enough that they did a great job.
Carly's Angels is much recommended by me. Uber funny!
About Club Paradiso: The service was great and so was the food. The drinks were a little expensive, and it seemed like a really nice bar. The space was small and intimate with a very nice second floor patio. I've been meaning to go back!
