The benefit for Eddie Dane of the Hubba Hubba Revue will lead off the week on Wednesday night at the Uptown Nightclub in Oakland, and it will feature a lot of the area's best burlesque performers plus musical guests The Phenomenauts and Toshio Hirano! Eddie needs several surgeries to save his eyesight, and they'll be very expensive. He needs our help to save his sight! So help give back to someone who gives us so much entertainment by attending and purchasing a photo of yourself with the Twilight Vixen Revue, entering the raffle, or by donating in other ways. And if you can't attend, you can give online at Eddie's GiveForward page! Eddie will also be the emcee for the Hubba Hubba Revue show, "Cabaret Perilous," on Saturday at the Uptown.
Kitty Victorian will be visiting from Washington, DC, and she'll be performing at Friday's Red Hots Burlesque show at El Rio in San Francisco and at the Fella-Fem Show at the White Horse Bar in Oakland on Saturday evening. She founded DC's first burlesque troupe, the DC Gurly Show, in 2004, and she's been teaching burlesque at her Burlesque University since 2006.
Scotty the Blue Bunny will be performing at Little Minsky's on Thursday night at Club Deluxe in San Francisco. He's been traveling the world, but he's back for a bit. You'll want to see him before he hops away again! It's not everyday that you see a 6' 7" blue bunny with the attitude to match!
