  • Story Text: All male revue has made a splash in Mexico City.
    Australia's all-male revue, "Thunder from Down Under", performed in Mexico City on Wednesday (September 03) to a sold out crowd of hundreds of cheering women from all ages.
    "Thunder from Down Under" is made up of 10 men from all walks of life, including professional dancers, former athletes and acrobats.
    The dancers invite women to perform on stage with them and help them with some of their acts.
    "At first we may come to a new country like Mexico and the women are very receptive because the show is very tastefully done," dancer Marty Amiott said. "At the end of the show, they're up and they have gone crazy and they enjoyed themselves and have a good time."
    "Thunder from Down Under" has been performing in various venues throughout Las Vegas, including a one-year run at New Frontier and a newly opened venue in the strip's Excalibur's Merlin's Theatre.
    Wednesday's performance was merely a taste of what the Australian hunks will be offering during their shows. They will start performing officially in Mexico City as well as 11 other cities throughout the country on October 1.
