Steve’s Live Show!
Now that Bathtubs Over Broadway has whetted the world’s appetite, Steve is taking audiences on the deep dive. Steve screens extended versions of several astonishing industrial musical films glimpsed in the documentary, including Purina Dog Chow’s 1967 Triple Treasure Spectacular, GE Silicones’ 1973 “Love is the Answer,” and — yes — the legendary 1969 American-Standard plumbing fixture musical, “The Bathrooms Are Coming”! Plus other bizarre examples not seen in the documentary, from Kellogg’s, Hamm’s beer, and more. You won’t find these films on YouTube — Steve’s show is the only place to see them. His tour of the mind-blowing hidden world of corporate show biz is more than just vintage film; it’s an evening of behind-the-scenes stories, wild album covers, affectionately snarky commentary, and even live music! An experience not to be missed by anyone interested in music, comedy, theater, American history, and/or songs about selling bathtubs and dog food!
Industrial musicals merch available at the show!
