Just as Tanja de Vries has become the industry's designated on-screen shower taker, it seems Victoria Paris is becoming the audition gal.

Paris "auditions" once again, this time for major league sleaze, Mr. Hardlick (Rick Savage) who needs an attraction for his hardcore cabaret show to keep the critics off his back. A pretty hot scene develops here. Savage really shouldn't have been too concerned because the on-stage stuff is ferociously strange (like Bionca's screwing in a rain of oil – hot!), and Porsche Lynn's later scene with Scott Irish. Paris as the ingénue act dresses like Little Bo Beep but strip dances like Mother Goose's house is on fire.

With good, lively music and strong, animated coupling, Hot Lick Café is a memorable opening act for new company, Gotham Entertainment.
