Scenery and props were loaded in yesterday to the new, custom-built theater at Planet Hollywood for the opening in 10 days of the sexy, saucy adult burlesque Peep Show. It stars Scary Spice Mel B and Playboy and Dancing With the Stars glamour girl Kelly Monaco.

Today, the cast moves into its theater space for the first time. The Peep Show theater has been redesigned and redecorated from when it housed Stomp through New Year’s Eve. Click HERE for our interview with designer David Rockwell.

Mel B.

Earlier this week, Vegas DeLuxe presented Mel B’s new lingerie campaign for the British underwear company Ultimo, and Mel confesses that she was inspired by the costumes she’ll be almost wearing here for Peep Show for the sizzling photo shoot.

The heaviest prop loaded in this week was the red-hot Peep Show car. Preview performances start March 30 for the star striptease. Click HERE for our previous interviews with Mel, Kelly and director-choreographer Jerry Mitchell.
