LOOKING IN ON: ENTERTAINMENT
Friday, July 6, 2007 | 6:56 a.m.
Producer David Saxe ("V, the Ultimate Variety Show," etc . ) recently celebrated the first anniversary of his surprise hit "Stripper 101."
Part show, part educational experience for daring women (only), this event has been selling out so often that shows have been added and it may even get its own room - currently it takes place on a roomy balcony bar at the V Theatre inside the Miracle Mile shopping mall at Planet Hollywood.
"Stripper 101" began with four classes a week and now has 20. The number of instructors (all former strippers) has increased from one to four.
According to Saxe , more than 10,000 women have received instructions on pole dancing, how to strip and how to look sexy even if you don't strip.
"We've had them in here from 18 years old to 80," Saxe said.
Details: 5 and 6:30 p.m. Mondays through Wednesdays; 3:30, 5 and 6:30 p.m. Thursdays through Saturdays; 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays ; and 3:30 and 5 p.m. Sundays; $40 to $60; 260-7200.
Hypnotists galore
Joining the crowded field of Las Vegas hypnotists is the beautiful Norann, who bills herself as "The World's Fastest Hypnotist."
Move over Anthony Cools ( Paris), Marc Savard (Planet Hollywood), Scott Lewis (Riviera) and Michael Johns and Terry Stokes (House of Blues).
Norann debuts her weekly show Saturday at Suede, a gay-friendly restaurant and lounge.
Details: 10:30 p.m., 4640 S. Paradise Road, south of the Hard Rock; free, but there's a two-drink minimum; 791-3463.
Coffee house
At the Rejavanate you can get more than just cream with your coffee. You can get poetry, movies, jazz, knitting, karaoke and even Bible studies.
Vocalist Jordan Reimer performs Saturday .
New owners Hercules Cummings and John Abbas are providing a space for artists, musicians, poets and others to put their talents on display. Their schedule has nights devoted to poetry (Sundays and Tuesdays), movies (Mondays), comedy (Wednesdays), concerts (Thursdays), open mike (Fridays) and karaoke (Saturdays).
