It starts the GUI toolkit event loop, which starts to make things messy if you try to call show() again. It often works, but calling show() more than once is most-definitely not supported. Now, depending on what exactly you're trying to do, you can set everything up to work off of events from the GUI so that once you call show(), the user can click on various things and trigger actions. Have you looked at the examples in: examples/event_handling?
