The David Bowie Hepzikat Funky Velvet Flarney Solstice Spectacular, Live... From Space! (David Bowie's Christmas Special 1977
National Pastime Theater
4139 N. Broadway Chicago
Starring the character of David Bowie, this one of kind variety show spectacular snatched from the archives of 1977 brings the kind of star power that only ‘Ziggy Stardust’ could command. Featuring character appearances by Mick Jagger, Annie Lennox, Iggy Pop, Marianne Faithfull, Nipsey Russell, Charo, and more, plus a special appearance by the Ghost of Freddy Mercury, audience members will be taken on an exciting journey of song and dance reminding us all of the joys of brotherhood and giving that the holiday season brings. But when the mysterious Bizarro Bowie appears to reveal his scattered past, it’s a race for time to save the holidays from the ultimate universal implosion.

Review Round-Up
| Chicago Reader - Somewhat Recommended
"...Like the network variety specials it enthusiastically skewers and honors, this New Millennium Theatre Company holiday offering is held together by the thinnest of narrative threads, and the pacing can lag. Purists may be confused by the anachronism of figures like Annie Lennox and Buster Poindexter showing up for a 1977 David Bowie Christmas show, but never mind--the cast's energetic celebrity impressions are winning."
