Sploshing In Burlesque Shows

Here is a pic of performers Alaska Blue and Miss La La Lovette at the Cake Bake.

Its interesting how often slapstick is used in these old time Burlesque Shows that are becoming very popular again.

Just interested to know if anyone has seen food/pie fights in a show like this?

I like burlesque shows but haven't seen messy slapstick featured. This could be a mission for our secret agent Clown Julie!

That could be made into the style of 1 of those early 1900s films...

Could be a mission for the MessClub too lol.

We now have access to our own venue and one of the members will be helping produce some Burlesque skits that will be auditioned at the venue.

Nothing major sort of similar to open mike on comedy nights in the Burlesque market.

Hmmm, wonder if we should sneak in a bit of slapstick into one of the sketches :lol:

Silly question to ask this forum but would be interesting if we could pull it off.

Of course Richard having seen your performance on the Documentary you'd be on the honourary guest list to see the first show :wink:

Clown Julie in a Burlesque show, now that would be awesome, even if it was for one cameo appearance, we can all but hope.

Anyway wondered if we did manage to get this off the ground would anyone want to see the pictures on here?

Meanwhile, back in the real world.....

Of course we would. :D Pies and semi-naked sexy ladies, what's not to like? ;)
