Ah, feels like old times. How exciting that some of the original members of our pioneering Nepali Village People are honoring us with their presence! Remember these flamboyant hotties--Slow Learner 1 (Native American), Pushkar Samarthak (Cowboy), and Queen Darshankaka (Construction Worker)? They are busily applying make-up and slipping into their tight macho dresses as we speak and coyly awaiting the arrival of the Biker and the Policeman to complete the joyful reunion and get the carnival started. Some have spitefully called them the Grand Inquisitors, Envious Arm-chair Moralizers, Sour-Grapes Puritans, and worse, but their detractors are badly mistaken. Our beloved Nepali Village People are merely into leather and S&M, so of course these sistaz have to understandably act the way they do and take on the Judgmental Fascist persona. Furthermore, as their performance unfolds, please notice that these sistaz are sublimating, through art, their bitterly unrequited obsession for the adventurous bicycling hunk (who has always ignored their aggressive advances, thereby driving our dear sistaz into vengeful despair). Seen in that light, their very happy dance-and-song numbers--especially "Macho Manche" and "YMHA"--take on deep artistic and Freudian significance. So without further ado, ladies and gentleman of Sajhapur: please give a big hand (no, no, not the finger damn-it, I said a big hand) to the incomparably kind, compassionate, generous, forgiving, and morally perfect, our own and only, the Nepali Village People Reprise (tali, please)!!
