Forget all of your Wizard of Oz, Wicked Witch of the West memories of green skin, shapeless black robes and wart-covered noses, these witches are hot. The seven female members of Witches in Bikinis, a Brooklyn-based performance group, strut their collective stuff in brightly colored wigs and bikinis that would make Glenda blush. Since 2005 the group has been singing tunes by William Rozar about Halloween and horror. But these ladies aren’t one-trick ponies: They dance, too. The eye candy may draw the crowds but the suggestive moves and lyrics don’t hurt: the group’s theme which boasts “I saw witches in bikinis/Wearing velvet capes/Roasting human weenies/And stuffing them in crepes.” Think of it as a test-run for Halloween (albeit a little early). It’s never too soon to start figuring out those costume ideas … And did we mention the bikinis?
Sept. 29. Kenny’s Castaways, 157 Bleecker St. (betw. Thompson & Sullivan Sts.), 212-979 9762; 10, $7.
