Well Loves,

"Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic" by Sinner Saint Burlesque continues through July 26th at The Noc Noc. This adaptation of an ancient Babylonian myth follows six mortal maidens on their journey of sexual enlightenment and their quest to awaken the goddess Ishtar.

"Teenybopper Times: A Burlesque Revue" is the Back Bar Beauties' summer show. Celebrating "a few savory months of sunshine, teeny bikinis, slow-motion bounding down the beach and freshly minted graduates seeking an exciting new world." The Beauties will be remebering by gone days of youthful abandon, summer time icons and more. You will find them, and special guest host Anita Goodman, on Thursday July 12th (8pm & 10pm) at Sonya's Skyy Lounge in Belltown.
It has been called the "Summer of Nerdlesque". It started last month with a Doctor Who themed cabaret, and will continue this month. First with...
"Stark Naked: A Nerdlesque Tribute to A Game of Thrones" by Fauxdust Presents. On Friday 13th, and Saturday 14th at Theatre Off Jackson you will be able to catch a myriad of Seattle ecdysiasts geeking out to the HBO hit based off of George R. Martin's novel A Game of Thrones. Hosted by The Mad Marquis of Portaland (I really hope their is a 'flaming sword' involved), Stark Naked will "fuse contemporary pop culture and social commentary with the already over-the-top elements of high fantasy, through multimedia displays of burlesque, music and varietey" sound intrigue? Yes it does!

"Mitzy's Ditzy Glitzy Variety Show...Returns!" produced by Mitzy Sixx at the ReBar on Saturday, July 14th! Once a staple of the Open Circle Theater's cache of entertainment, Mitzy Sixx is bringing back her Variety Show for a ONE NIGHT ONLY event at the ReBar. Her show has been called a "confusing, sexy, hysterical romp with skin, music, dancing... and beat poetry?!" Having performed with Mitzy's crew I can attest to the accuracy of that description. :-) Fun times at the ReBAR on July 14th.
