Christopher Peterson's 'EYECONS, Las Vegas Or Bust' At The Waterfront

Legendary impressionist, Christopher Peterson brings his stage extravaganza "EYECONS, Las Vegas or Bust" to the Waterfront Playhouse for three nights only, playing October 23, 24 and 25 at 8 pm. This official Fantasy Fest event will mark Christopher's final Key West appearances before relocating to Las Vegas. His all-live, no lip-sync show features hilarious parodies of all the great female stars, plus four dancers, over-the-top costumes and Vegas-style sets. The Waterfront, as one of Fantasy Fest's premier sponsors, is thrilled that Christopher chose The Playhouse as the venue for his Key West performing swan song.

Christopher is a master of impersonations, both visually and vocally. He has thrilled Key West audiences (and audiences everywhere) with his impeccable comic timing and spot-on portrayals of all the great ladies. You know, the legends where one name suffices: Marilyn, Madonna, Bette (both Davis and Midler), Joan, Eartha, Julie, Cher, Tina, Barbra, Liza, Judy and of course, Lucy, as well as many others. "EYECONS, Las Vegas or Bust" is an expanded version of his cabaret show that also features professional dancers Brittany Dunn, Meghan Dunn, Cory G. Johnston and Jeffrey Kobasa. Christopher has also created all of the costumes, while Michael Boyer has designed the set for this splashy production.

Christopher has appeared in television, cabaret, movies (as Lucille Ball with Cuba Gooding, Jr. in "Rat Race"), and he has an extensive background in theater. Local audiences will remember his brilliant portrayal of Bette Davis in the Waterfront's sold-out production of "BitchSlap!" In 2003, he appeared in "Whoop-DeeD00!" at the WFPH as Nancy Reagan and delivered a show-stopping rendition of Judy Garland. He developed his one man, many women extravaganza during his two year stint with the Canadian touring show "The Imposters," which resulted in a Dora Award (the Canadian Tony) for Best Male Performance in a musical review. His show won a Best Musical/Review in Toronto and received a nomination in Palm Springs for Best Musical Review. For over ten years he performed his "Eyecons" cabaret show at LaTeDa's Crystal Room in Key West.
