Kitten on the Keys and Mischievous Maidens at Les Folies Champagne this Tuesday

On Tuesday, November 16, Les Folies Champagne presents Kitten on the Keys (pictured) and the Mischievous Maidens at the Bubble Lounge located at 714 Montgomery Street (map) in San Francisco!

Kitten on the Keys (aka Suzanne Ramsey) is arguably San Francisco's most popular and famous burlesque and cabaret performer. She has starred in the movie Tournée (On Tour), which was in competition for the Palme d'Or at this year's Cannes Film Festival. She's also been seen on HBO, E!, IFC, Queer TV MTV, and Bravo, as well as numerous theater stages across the North America and Europe. She sings Tin Pan Alley treasures, bawdy show tunes, the blues, and classic rock. All performed on a piano, ukelele, or accordion. Then she transforms into Kitten on the Keys, a bawdy lass whose double entendre-filled ditties will leave you rolling with laughter in the aisles.

Also performing will be the Mischievous Maidens, those seemingly innocent young ladies who are a bit more risqué when they get on a stage! They also have their own show every second Friday of the month at the Skylark Bar in San Francisco's Mission district.

Performing his magic and comedy for you will be the top-rated Ash K. the Pretty Good! He was selected as a 2010 Best of the BayList winner for "Best Theatre Group," and he has five-star ratings on both Yelp and Citysearch. Check out this video below to see a sample of what you can expect on Tuesday!

Finally, there will be a Sexy Santa Booth where you can get your usual holiday card photos taken, only with a risqué twist this year!

So catch the show on Tuesday, as the Folies will take a break for the holidays. And the next one will be in January, so drink some champagne, prepare for the holidays, and enjoy the show. Cheers!

Bella Trixx and Shadow Circus will perform at Les Folies Champagne this Wednesday, October 20

This coming Wednesday, join the witches of Les Folies Champagne and emcee Natasha Muse at the Bubble Lounge in San Francisco as they present a pre-Halloween variety show that will feature the Shadow Circus Creature Theatre, Bella Trixx, and Madame Molotova, amongst others!

The Bubble Lounge is in the Financial District, close to the Transamerica Pyramid. When you enter the Bubble Lounge, the host or hostess will assist you. Get there early for a good seat! Being that it's San Francisco's premier champagne bar, you may want to try one of their specials! They usually select one champagne for each act for the evening.

If you have a large party, you may want to see if you can make reservations. When I went to see the Folies, quite a few of the sofas were reserved. Please call the Bubble Lounge at (415) 434-4204 for assistance.

Enjoy!

Les Folies Champagne will get you in the mood for Halloween with a Voracious Variety Show on Wednesday, October 20th.

Of course, you can also enjoy exquisite Champagnes and the ecclectic music of DJ Blaise.

As always, Les Folies Champagne has an ongoing commitment to High Class Hooch and Hoochie Coochie for all!

Dr. Sketchy's SF, Les Folies Champagne on Tuesday, July 20

If you've been looking for a belly dance troupe to sketch, look no further! This Tuesday at 111 Minna Gallery, Dr. Sketchy's of San Francisco will bring you Sister Kate for your drawing enjoyment!

Bring your sketch pad, pencils, or pens, and get ready to draw these live models in a fun and casual atmosphere. There may be music and contests during the evening, and artists often socialize during breaks. Plus, 111 Minna Gallery has a bar where you may purchase refreshments! Oh yeah! Plus, Sister Kate will likely perform one of their acts during the evening for you.

It's just $10 for general admission, and $7 for students and teachers with valid school identification. It's a popular event, so make sure to get there early to get a good seat close to the stage!

Dr. Sketchy's SF presents Sister Kate

Sister Kate is a genre-crossing belly dance burlesque trio from San Francisco that consists of three bad ass bombshells: Wendy Darling, Sarah Campbell, and Ashley Blair. All three ladies toured as company members of the well known tribal fusion belly dance troupe Ultra Gypsy before branching off to become bellydance's new sweethearts, Sister Kate. Together, they've developed a unique blend of sexy, whimsical belly dance cabaret, informed by the traditions of both tribal fusion belly dance and classic burlesque. Their theatrical performances, atypical costuming, and provocative blending of dance genres have been wowing audiences around the Bay Area. They are regulars at the Hubba Hubba Revue, have brought down the house at the SF Mecca Immersion, and hammed it up at the Love Parade 2008 VIP gala in San Francisco's city hall. They also produce the popular monthly gypsy cabaret Baxtalo Drom - The Lucky Road, where they are showcased every fourth Friday at Amnesia in San Francisco's Mission district. In addition, they perform regularly at private parties, weddings, benefits, and local burlesque shows. You won't want to miss New Years 2009 with these three saucy senoritas!

Wendy Darling, a golden-haired California native, began her performance career as a fire dancer, and was the lead costumer for Ultra Gypsy. Sarah Campbell, a cute-as-a-button spitfire from Florida, studied with Mahsati and Cerice Janan and danced with the Bal Fahjar troupe before relocating to San Francisco. The smoldering, green-eyed Ashley Blair taught dance classes in Chicago and was formally a member of the dance companies Tribalesque and Maya before moving to the bay area. All three ladies studied with local diva Jill Parker.

What is Dr Sketchy's Anti-Art School?

Dr Sketchy's is an international drawing phenomenon.

In San Francisco, Dr Sketchy's gives you a monthly opportunity to draw rhinestone encrusted burlesque performers, bearded ladies, cute girls on bicycles and anything else we can conjure up to tantalize your pencils.

Dr. Sketchy's is the little Brooklyn event that became a movement. Founded in 2005 by artist Molly Crabapple, Dr. Sketchy's asked a simple question. Why can't drawing naked people be sexy?

I've never been to the Bubble Lounge, but it seems swanky. I wonder if they'll let me in? I wonder if I can get a glass of Night Train for my one included drink?? Hehe.
