The artists behind Buttrock Suites uniquely combine the dramatic force of '70s and '80s arena rock (AC/DC, Bon Jovi, Boston) with choreography. It's a hard music dance revue, plus plenty of hairspray. Last year, Seattlest interviewed co-founder Diana Cardiff, who told described the choreography as:
...many styles of dance, movement, theater. No two pieces are alike. Each piece has its own take on a song, whether it be in full stereotypical Buttrock fashion/costumes, glammy jazz, satirical ballet, pedestrian, spoken word, etc.... We even had a butoh piece performed to a Styx tune in a past Buttrock show.
You'll have the chance to see them perform twice at the Triple Door this Saturday. While this contributor has yet to see the Suites in action, we've been assured this isn't a show to miss. If you're new to the Triple Door, it's set up as a dinner club, so a component of buying tix is making table reservations. Seating starts two hours prior to showtime for early shows, one hour prior to late shows.
