*DOTTIE LUX!!!*
"Dottie Lux is the proud producer of SF's only weekly burlesque show (NOW TWICE WEEKLY), Red Hots Burlesque She is also instructor and performer, seen in New York Times, SF Chronicle, NBC, KOFY TV, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, Bard and Mills College, NYU and many more publications, festivals and venues.

*ALOTTA BOUTTE!!!*
Alotta is at home on stage and it shows; be it on the mic as emcee or chanteuse, or in movement in a variety of styles (classic, kitschy, campy, trashy, dramatic, shtick, or just plain fun).

*KISS ME KATE!!!*
"Known as “The San Francisco Cutie with More Curves Than Lombard Street!” classic burlesque performer Kiss Me Kate is a vital part of the Bay Area burlesque community.

She was the featured performer in November 2011 at Red Hots Burlesque, and can often be found wowing crowds at shows throughout the Bay Area.

C U L T L I F E
2012//LOCKDOWN

-Livid Cult Burlesque Theatre is a living creature of sight, sound, and electric body magic.
-California's only Black-owned, Queer Burlesque Theatre Consortium.
Conceived by Burlesque artist, art history enthusiast, and pop culture creature Dorian Faust, Livid Cult Burlesque Theatre is a cutting-edge Neo-Burlesque experience that combines the sensual spectacle of Burlesque performance with the technicality of stage plays and musicals. The show itself uses a more holistic approach to the art of the tease by revealing the history of it through film, dialogue, acting, and dance. Livid Cult changes the audience's perception of Burlesque today by dissecting the components of a Burlesque show, turning each piece inside out, embellishing it, and propelling it to new heights.

Our guests this month

Leading us down the rabbit hole...

Scotty the Blue Bunny
We're thrilled to welcome back one of our favorite MCs, prankster pinup, & carrot consuming card as our master of all things upsidedown!

Wesley Morgan
Broken-down blues rolling out of a Saturday night juke joint, and stumbling drunk into Sunday morning redemption. Junkyard swing that is ragged and raw, with melodies that drop off, bend, and crack. Swamp noir imagery full of charming devils and angels with broken wings.


The Lady Fred
From Oakland, CA; Lady Fred’s avant-garde performances are theatrical vignettes based on echoes from the past, to thundering bass from the future

Karina Castellanos
This tribal fusion belly dancer followed a white rabbit to San Francisco and sets her dance to the fiery music of her Latin home land.

DJ ZELJKO - (Kafana Balkan, Baxtalo Drom)
Hear the hottest Brass beats, Balkan Bangers, Slavic Soul, Gypsy Groove, and Circus Crunk that's taking the underground by storm!

It's gonna be cozy as a campfire at Amnesia with intimate performances all night long! So come early, and stay late! Dress tight and get loose. And try your luck at the Lucky Road Show... where fortunes and told and made!

Red Hots Burlesque

The Bunny is back. It feels like ages since we've had that adorably horrifying, pilates-packed, lovingly accosting burlesque staple wrapped in shimmery blue spandex. It's SCOTTY THE BLUE BUNNY! But he is hardly the only reason to be at this week's show. There's so much more! CANNIBALISTIC CAN-CAN TROUPE! Visiting UK talent, a failed actress, a Viva Las Vegas hopeful our featured performer and so much more!

Come with your sense of humor, get ready to enter the pink bubble. Red Hots Burlesque brings you the "city's best" bump and grind at the "happiest hour" in the bay and newly noted "#3 burlesque show in the country to take your girl to"!

Please welcome debut performance by visiting performer Cherry Contrary: originally heralds from Seattle but has spent the past seven years in London. Staying true to Burlesques original meaning of 'satire', her performances are haphazard, silly yet seductive, with a sprinkling of feminism and social commentary. Miss Contrary started her burlesque career in 2005 and has been performing consistently across the UK. Highlights have been performing at Leeds, Glastonbury, Secret Garden and Download Festivals, as well as opening for the Dresden Dolls on their UK tour and participating in the Skin Two Rubber Ball in 2007. She performs regularly for The Whoopee Club and Ohmygodimissyou!, two clubs forefronting the London new burlesque scene. She was also nominated for Performance Artist of the Year at the Erotic Awards 2006.

About our FEATURED Performer:

Vaudie's first time performing burlesque was her freshman year in high school in a production of "Guys and Dolls."She has been involved with over a thousand events in hundreds of venues between Southern California and Northern Washington. She wants to learn all aspects of "show business," and let's just say she's well on her way.
Not only does she direct the world's only cannibalistic can-can troupe called The Can-Cannibals, but she is also the co-creator of the dynamic burlesque duo The Dishrag Dollies, dances with the esteemed French Can-Can troupe from San Francisco, Le CanCan Bijou, and performs solo burlesque, cabaret and sideshow acts. On top of that she produces concerts, events, and her own variety show called the Punk Rock Cabaret for the Oakland Pyrate Punx. She will undoubtedly bring a huge smile and a unique freshness to all of her endeavors.

Dance Party with DJ MALARKEY http://soundcloud.com/dj-malarkey

MALARKEY: Ma-lar-key: me-lar-ke'

1. irish slang: exaggerated or foolish talk, usually intended to deceive.

2. meaningless talk or nonsense

Diversity is king in a world filled with A.D.D, electronic hyperactivity and attention spans similar to that of a tennis ball... a concept that Malarkey knows all too well.

Fusing the wiggly feet of b boys, burners, ear doctors, caffeine drinkers, hipsters, gypsies, weekend warriors, city workers, hooka loungers, nymphomaniacs, club kids, festival folks, civil activists, alcoholics, sociologists, pyromaniacs, single mothers and beyond... is the one thing this guy has no trouble focusing on.

A split personality in the booth renders a playful gap between funky break beat for peak time discos wigs... to silky sexy downtempo for head knocking smoke outs.... to globe trotting world beat for dusty bare feet.

A traditional style of mix and arrangement with the ability to gel various style, tempo & rhythm comes naturally shining a bright light on the delict crowd control skill that most DJ's neglect or skull f*ck to death.

Hubba Hubba Revue: Wild West Burlesque opens the Edwardian Ball weekend tonightSocialTwist Tell-a-Friend

Edwardian Ball 2012: "The Iron Tonic" this weekend

It's the week of the Edwardian Ball in San Francisco, which means that there will be lots of costumed people surrounding this Edward Gorey-inspired, can't miss event.

The Edwardian Ball itself takes place this Friday and Saturday, January 20 and 21, at the Regency Center in San Francisco, which is located at 1300 Van Ness Avenue at Sutter (map). It's once again presented by Paradox Media and Vau de Vire. Tickets may be purchased in-person at the stores listed at edwardianball.com/tickets, and they may be purchased online at Ticketfly.com. Tickets may also be purchased (if available) at the door for a few dollars more. Please note that the Los Angeles date for the Edwardian Ball has been postponed. The new date (probably in March) will be announced soon.

Photobucket

On Friday, it's The Edwardian World's Faire, which is a night of music, theatrics, circus, fashion, gaming, and Edwardian-tinged rock n’ roll. It's touch less formal than Saturday's Ball, with steam-powered sculptures, displays, rides, and games that are one-night-only. Kingfish of the Hubba Hubba Revue will be host, and there will be the debut of the "Museum of Wonders." Performers will include Edwardian disc jockey Delachaux, Sour Mash Hug Band, Flynn Creek Circus, Vau de Vire Society, DJ Fact.50, and our now-famous Vendor Bazaar & Piano Saloon featuring the John Brothers Piano Company! Tickets for the World's Faire range from $29.00 for general admission to $75.00 for VIP Balcony, and may be purchased online at Ticketfly.com. The Faire starts at 8:00 p.m., and is scheduled to last until 2:00 a.m.

Saturday's Edwardian Ball will be preceded in the afternoon by the free Vendor Bazaar daytime shopping, and an afternoon tea from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. with "chap hop" artist from the United Kingdom, Professor Elemental. Tickets for the afternoon tea are $30.00, and available online at Ticketfly.com. Performers during the Ball are scheduled to include "Belle of the Ball" Jill Tracy, The Fossettes, Jef Valentine, DJs Miz Margo and Delachaux, and more. Plus, Ball founders Rosin Coven and Vau de Vire Society will bring Gorey's "The Iron Tonic" to life with original music, choreography, narration, and circus acts. Tickets for the Edwardian Ball range from $39.00 for general admission to $85.00 for VIP Balcony, and may be purchased online at Ticketfly.com. The Ball opens at 8:00 p.m., and is scheduled to end at 2 a.m.

Although it's called the Edwardian Ball, and there are opportunities to dance, there's enough going on that even if you don't dance, there's always something to do. Whether it's shopping in the Vendor Bazaar, looking at the various displays that are set up around the Regency Center, watching and listening to the performances, chatting with the person wearing the fishbowl with live goldfish, or gazing in wonder at the costumes of your fellow attendees, it's an event that is sure to thrill.

What to wear? Although it is called the Edwardian Ball, your choices are not necessarily limited to the Edwardian Era. After all, it's inspired by Edward Gorey, so you can dress up as a Gorey character. Or you can sport the safari look like Professor Elemental. Dressing like a character in a Sherlock Holmes story is another idea. The event is a mashup of various influences, including goth, steampunk, and others, so it's hard to go wrong. It's probably best not to attend in a t-shirt and jeans, although a few people do. If you're really concerned, you can scan through the picture galleries at edwardianball.com/galleries. Something nice and formal for a night out on the town would work, too. Last year's 7x7 Magazine had an article with a good suggestion for women.

Also, see last year's "Newbie Guide" for more about attending the Edwardian Ball. Lastly, it's usually a good idea to get there at or before 8:00 for the Faire and Ball to beat the crowds getting in. And if you're hungry, there are restaurants and other establishments around the Regency Center.

About our FEATURED Performer:

Vaudie's first time performing burlesque was her freshman year in high school in a production of "Guys and Dolls."She has been involved with over a thousand events in hundreds of venues between Southern California and Northern Washington. She wants to learn all aspects of "show business," and let's just say she's well on her way.
Not only does she direct the world's only cannibalistic can-can troupe called The Can-Cannibals, but she is also the co-creator of the dynamic burlesque duo The Dishrag Dollies, dances with the esteemed French Can-Can troupe from San Francisco, Le CanCan Bijou, and performs solo burlesque, cabaret and sideshow acts. On top of that she produces concerts, events, and her own variety show called the Punk Rock Cabaret for the Oakland Pyrate Punx. She will undoubtedly bring a huge smile and a unique freshness to all of her endeavors.

About our VISITING Performer:
This Queen of Queer Burlesque is so electric, why she's the very reason the lights went out in Georgia!I am a burlesque performer of 7 years.More specifically I make performance art rooted in various African-American vernacular dance traditions (from the cakewalk, to shake dancing), with 50's/60 striptease movement vocabulary and heavily influenced by mid century showgirl chic. I currently live in Columbus, Ohio where I'm teaching at the Columbus Burlesque Academy. I am VAGINA JENKINS!
