STRIP POKER; A Trivia Game Show

What is STRIP POKER? Merriam Webster defines this as: a poker game in which players pay their losses by removing articles of clothing, and list the first known use of the word as 1912. Jack & Wood takes this definition and turns it on its head!






We gather members of Seattle's burlesque community and pit them against each other in a battle of wits.  Not only is this a poker game, but it's a game that requires players to answer trivia questions in order to gain cards and build their hands.


Once both players earn their hands, we compare.  The highest hand wins, and so does the audience, because here is were we twist it.  The WINNER of each round takes off an article of clothing.  Pretty cool huh?  You get to cheer (and maybe even help out) the burlesquer you want to see nekkid!


But STRIP POKER is more then just a fun burlesque-trivia show hybrid, it's also and opportunity to give to a great cause.  Jack & Wood Productions is pleased to announce that we will be supporting The Lambert House on Capitol Hill, and a share of all profits earned by STRIP POKER will be donated to this awesome organization.

STRIP POKER is coming up, on Monday, March 28th.  We will be gathering in The Grotto at The Rendezvous.  The game will get started at 8:00pm, but we'll be opening the house at 7:00pm to give you a chance to mingle, have a couple of drinks and enjoy the unique atmosphere of this old speakeasy.

It's a fun show, and we hope you can make it!


Love,
