Wheel of Tease Returns for 4 Times the Fun

CopyrightThere are two things you don’t see a lot of in neo-burlesque today: live music and on-the-spot -improvisation. When these two elements do come to pass, the result is a rare and beautiful thing. On the Friday, February6th eight performers, some burlesque stars and a few fresh faces, will take the stage and create spontaneous performances using props and song chosen by members of the audience. The soundtrack to this “kamikaze burlesque” will be performed live by Seattle’s only electro-swing band Good Co. Join us for a night of spur-of-the-moment striptease and silly, sexy fun. 

And we're bringing this madness to you four times in 2015.

Sir Eddie Van Glam is back, leading audience members to the stage and helping them select the music Good Co will play and the prop the performer has to dance with. 

Each show has a different cast of performers. Some are local, some are from other states, and a few are from another country altogether. 

February 6th features Reggie Bügmüncher and Kat De Lac from the Keystone state of Pennsylvania . They'll be joining Lowa de Boom Boom, Miss Violet DeVille, Absurdity Belle, Jesus la Pinga, Morgan LaMay, and The Black Sparrow. 

May 8th stars the Paris Original, and features Bettie Fever from Vancouver, B.C., Trixie Paprika, Miss Violet DeVille, Artemis Lark, Morgue Anne, Razzberry Rocket, and Dahlia Ste. cyr.

August 8th brings Vancouver, B.C. starlets Faux Foxy and Ruby Slickeur to our stage along with the local flavor of Cherry "Killer" Tomatoes, Miss Violet DeVille, Bella Luna, Kristina Weena, Mandy Flame, and Verity Germaine.

November sets us up with Rock Hart, the international boylesque sinsation from Edinburgh, Scotland and Port Angeles' own Siouxzie Queen Gypsy and featuring performances from Sara Dipity, Whisper De Corvo, Cirquesse, Miz Melancholy, Magnolia Monroe, and Nickey Bourbon.

The commanding burlesque showdown is back! We have all heard the impassioned, and sometimes very heated, arguments in geek circles. Who is the better captain; is it James T. Kirk or Jean Luc Picard? What about other captains found in television, books, and movies? We have ten captains to put to the test and we aim to settle that little score. And then some with your help. Who will you promote to commodore?

“I think Weird Al summed it up best,” said creator Miss Violet DeVille, “when he said it was the only question he thought was hard in ‘White and Nerdy’. The audience really enjoyed picking their favorites captains.”

Captain Royale Redux is on Saturday, January 3rd at the Re-Bar located at 1114th Howell St. in Seattle. The doors open at 6:30 pm and the show begins at 7:30 pm. Lilith von Fraumench as General Anxiety is our commander of ceremonies leading cast of luminaries featuring Ruby Darling, Claira bell, Violet DeVille, Artemis Lark, Cherry Tart, Mercury Divine, Morgan LaMay, Morgue Anne, Nickey Bourbon, and Tawdry Quirks. Tickets are available on at Brown Paper Tickets and through the Purple Devil Productions website.
