Alotta Boutté performs this Friday at Baxtalo Drom's Cotton Club

This Friday, October 22, catch the inimitable and amazing Alotta Boutté (pictured) at Baxtalo Drom's Cotton Club at Amnesia in San Francisco!

Ms. Boutté sings, dances, and emcees events. She's a regular multi-talented performer! She got her neo-burlesque start in the Bay Area as a founding member of Harlem Shake Burlesque, which won "Best Troupe" at Miss Exotic World in 2004 and was the first Black neo-burlesque troupe.

She has performed on burlesque stages across the country, including New York City's Starshine, Chicago's Gurlesque Burlesque with the Sissy Butch Brothers, and Margaret Cho's Sensuous Woman.

She's also a cast member of Steve Silver's Beach Blanket Babylon, which is playing at Club Fugazi in San Francisco.

So head on over to Baxtalo Drom's Cotton Club show at Amnesia. In addition to Ms. Boutté, performing will be Tribal Fusion Belly Dance star Mira Betz, musical guest Zoyres, and dancing to the sounds of DJ Delachaux! It's the perfect show to see after Red Hots Burlesque at El Rio! (See previous post.)
