SF Bay Area burlesque for the week of October 13, 2008

Ah, the chill of autumn is in the air. And Oktoberfest is in the beer! Haha. Ja! Okay. I've been listening to Kingfish's spiel far too much. Here are all the burlesque events of which I am aware of for this week:

• Monday, October 13: Mangos with Chili Queer Borderlands Tour at East Side Arts Alliance in Oakland. The show will feature new work in the genres of dance, vaudeville, poetry, spoken word, theater, burlesque, performance memoir, and hip hop addressing the themes of border transgressions, migrations, deportations, relocation, displacement, legacy and the struggle to create new worlds. Show at 8pm. $10-15, sliding scale. (no one turned away for lack of funds)
• Also Monday: Uptown Hubba Hubba at the Uptown Nightclub in Oakland. Join Kingfish and Eddie and the whole crazy crew as they welcome Dottie Lux, Ruby White, Mademoiselle Muerta and others for an evening of fun, sexiness, and booze! Doors at 9pm, show at 10ish. $5, 21+w/ID.
• Wednesday, October 15: Barbary Coast Burlesque at Annie's Social Club in San Francisco. If you miss the delish Ruby White on Monday, you get a second chance on Wednesday! Plus, you get to witness the international burlesque sensation that is Delilah! And the ravishing Lady Monster will be in the house! And many others... Oh, and don't forget your host Kingfish! Ja! Ist sehr gut!! Doors at 8pm, show at 9. $8, 21+ w/ID.
