Engaging Mame Pelletier pulls her audience kicking and cringing back into the 1980s, when she was a Lutheran high school cheerleader with "a claw" of big-hair bangs, a penchant for booze and a knack for amassing shame. Remember the guy who said you did it with him when you didn't? She's been there. Upchucking corn niblets at Canterbury after too many warm Bartles & Jaymes wine coolers? Done that, too. This show, appropriate for ages 16-plus, also takes a few confessions from the crowd. When Pelletier spins the confession wheel, hope it lands on "English pubes." (8:30 p.m. Sat., 8:30 p.m. Mon., 5:30 p.m. Thu., 7 p.m. next Sun.; Huge Theater, 3037 Lyndale Av. S., Mpls.)
