The Art of the Tease

Recently I attended my first ever burlesque show. I would have gone sooner, but it seemed to have disappeared off the planet for most of my life. Then I joined a group on meet-up.com of people that like to enjoy things from the past and the very night I joined up they had scheduled an event at a free burlesque show in Fullerton, CA.

We had to wait a long time for the show. Seems the lounge has a rule that the basketball game on the big screen TV has to end before the dancing started. The dance group allowed photos as long as they were without a flash, so they will be blurry.

The show of course wasn't appropriate for minors. But by modern standards, it's pretty tame and more nostalgic and campy than anything. Even the men in the group seemed to get a kick out of it without being too embarassed to be sitting with their female coworkers.

I'd go to another one for sure.
