From The Houston
Press, January 2, 2003:
Wonderfully
weird kitsch is what every droopy soul needs during the post-holiday
doldrums. And there's no better place for good old American middle-class
strangeness than the Marriott West Loop Hotel, where the Mystery Café
serves up London broil, penne pasta and a show every Friday and Saturday
night. The newest production, Come Up and Slay Me Sometime!,
features gangsters, girls and giggle water, and promises to sweep
the audience back to the prohibition era. Mae West, Charles Lindbergh
and Freddie "The Noodle" have all gathered at the "largest floating
speakeasy in history," but a dead body is found just as the party
is about to go live on the radio.
