I would so go to this! I saw a couple of these types of shows in New Orleans years ago and they are fun!

Jon... *looks over the top of my glasses* I expect its a lot of pretty ladies in pasties and g-strings writhing about to WAY tunes, I think they may have trivia quizzes? but I get the feeling that this lady can answer any or all of your questions https://twitter.com/PicklesKintaro" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; She seems like a fun sort.

I read an article about this that Ludo posted on Twitter saying how this might be a bad idea for a burlesque show...and I can't say I totally disagree with that assessment. Still, we don't even entirely know what this is going to be yet so I'll reserve my judgement.

The proper ladies of WOWAY must be rolling their eyes right now wondering how can this be a thing and then slowly hoping the guys forget about 6 DROOL TOPICS :lol:

I think its an awesome subject for a burlesque show. I oppose the objectification of women in general, but if they choose to do this sort of thing then as far as I am concerned I'd much rather it was done... um.. tongue in cheek.. shall we say? Just looking at the poster I'd say that some real fans are involved and if this is a bunch of ladies choosing to have a lot of fun and challenging the showgirl stereotype whilst doing all that getting naked stuff, then I find that more acceptable somehow than having the feeling that they're just pawns in some sleazy cookie cutter male fantasy fulfillment scenario



These shows have been going on since at latest early 2012 and as far as I know have been staged in Portland, Seattle and Oakland previously.. maybe more
