The Infamous Girlie-Q Variety Hour: Tonight!

2007-04-29T14:57:28Z

The Girlie-Q Variety Hour, Chicago's queerest and campiest
burlesque-variety show, will be back to entertain with "Free Love and
Death to Disco!" Variety from the 60s-70s era, on April 29, 2007.

Come see the secret life of Olivia Newton-John by Backdoor Aly, Bloody
Belle's daisy dukes, flower power undone by Bit O'Honey, a brit punk
catfight between Holly Wouldn't and Dominique Trixx, Clare de Lune's
striptease sass, Mae the Bellydancer's hot vibes, Marianne Mouthfull's
Love Buzz, and much more! Hosted by the on-again-off-again power
couple, Bloody Belle and Marianne Mouthfull. PLUS: Get hooked up on our
version of The Dating Game!

The Girlie-Q Variety Hour has been performing since May 2004, with a
regular monthly show at the HotHouse since September of 2005. They have
been featured at the PAC/Edge Festival and Estrojam 2005. Featuring
some of the edgiest burlesque, modern dance, "blue" songs,
and variety performance in town, the Girlie-Q Variety Hour is the
alternative to mainstream burlesque. The show mixes drag,
striptease, dance, comedy and radical sexual art with "lowbrow"
performance interests. Girlie-Q regularly digs up the strange, the
bizarre and the fantastic for an unforgettable evening that will
titillate, enchant, entertain, dazzle… and stimulate your grey matter.

This Saturday Night

2006-09-22T15:04:15Z

Dear Gals and Gallants,

There's a nip in the air-- just a hint of fall chill. Leaves are going gold around the edges, and night falls a little earlier.

We know... you're starting to feel that cold weather creeping in, so please, come in to this nice, cozy theater. Have a seat. Have a drink. Have some big belly laughs-- and feast your eyes on Bounty of Bombshells that will warm you right to your very core.

This month at the Belmont Burlesque Revue,

See! MsPixy attempt to maintain disorder in the classroom.
See! Naughty Natanya reinvent the 80s the way they should have been.
See! Special Guest Bloody Belle snap, crackle, and shimmy her spunky way into your sweetest post-show memories.

Not to mention the booze-swilling hijinx of Jack Midnight, the wide-eyed stage-handery of Second Cousin Joe, and the bladder-tickling comedy of the classic duo Gerdes and Reid!

You know where to find us... but in case you misplaced that particular matchbook cover...
