If you don't know who "Eleanor" is, watch this. For readers in or near Los Angeles: Cinefamily is hosting a three-night series of live one-man shows with Rich Fulcher as "Eleanor" starting tonight, Wednesday June 2 and continuing tomorrow and Friday: "An Evening with Eleanor: Tour Whore." On Friday, Cinefamily will hold the LA premiere of a new documentary about the Mighty Boosh tour (very much hot off the presses–I believe the final cut was just finished this week).

More about "Eleanor," the live show…

Rich Fulcher, co-star of the freaky British import "The Mighty Boosh" (seen on Adult Swim) and the savage BBC3 cult comedy hit "Snuff Box"! presents Eleanor, the world's greatest groupie and self-professed "tour whore", a filthy and outrageous character first brought to life on "Mighty Boosh" and now embodied in the flesh on our stage. Decked out in overly tight tights, she's made Neil "Young" again, put the "Wood" in Woodstock, and now she tells all — the Z-list musicians she's bedded, the litany of her glorious past excesses, instructions on sleeping your way to the top — through song, dance, audience participation and X-rated confessional monologue. Her decadent and surreal stories will leave you feeling freshly molested, so join the legendary slut and prepare to be pounded like yesterday's beef!

I caught Fulcher's improv show last week, and can enthusiastically recommend his live shows to anyone near LA over the next few nights as a rare and must-see delight.

Tickets to the live "Eleanor" show are here (they start at $15), and here's more about the documentary "Journey of the Childmen (a film by Oliver Ralfe), and tickets to the LA premiere on Friday are only $10.
