Le Cabaret Noir's "Sin on Heels" tour comes to SF on Wednesday, March 10, 2010

This Wednesday, you'll have an opportunity to see many of Seattle's finest burlesque performers as Le Cabaret Noir's Sin on Heels tour comes to Broadway Studios in San Francisco!

Miss Indigo Blue, Sydni Deveraux, Fuchsia FoXXX, Waxie Moon, Inga Ingenue, and Ernie Von Schmaltz, Jenny Penny are performing in the show. You may remember some of them from the documentary, A Wink and a Smile (2008).

Also included in the cast for this San Francisco show are local burlesque luminaries Alotta Boutté and Kellita of the Hot Pink Feathers!

It's a great opportunity to see some of Seattle's finest performers without having to travel to Seattle. Miss Indigo Blue is the headmistress of the Academy of Burlesque and has performed on stages across America and Europe and is one of the most recognizable names in burlesque today.

Sydni Deveraux is known as the Golden Glamazon for good reason! In person, she's amazingly tall, golden, and glamorous. Plus she's very talented, as she's the director of this show as well as a performer.

Fuchsia FoXXX has been voted Seattle's sexiest bellydancer and burlesque dancer in 2007 and 2008, respectively. She's also known as the "Hot Pink Exotic Machine." If you've seen her perform live, you'll know why!

When it comes to boylesque, Waxie Moon is unique. A classically trained actor and dancer, Waxie came to the world of neo-burlesque and put his own stamp on it with his performances. He's also the star of his own documentary, Waxie Moon (2009). He doesn't make it down to San Francisco that often, so catch him while you can!

When you think of "Little Blonde Bomb," who do you think of? Why, it should be Inga Ingenue! She's performed as a Reigning Queen of Burlesque (formerly Miss Exotic World) competitor at the Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend in Las Vegas, at the Amsterdam Burlesque Festival, and the Vancouver International Burlesque Festival, among many others. She's also been an instructor at Miss Indigo Blue's Academy of Burlesque.

Is it Elsa or Ernie Von Schmaltz? You can tell it's Ernie by the gold chains, bushy mustache, and pot belly hanging over his polyester leisure suit pants! His performances as a "ladies man" are hilarious. But I've always wondered what Elsa thinks of him...

Jenny Penny rounds out the cast, and Armitage Shanks will be your host for the evening.

It looks like a great show, and $20 is a lot less than plane fare to Seattle! $25 VIP seating and a $45 dinner package are available, and may be purchased in advance at Brown Paper Tickets.

Sin on Heels will be at the Broadway Studios in San Francisco for one night only. Broadway Studios is at 435 Broadway, between Kearney and Montgomery. Seating will begin at 7pm for those with dinner tickets, 7:30 for those with VIP tickets, and 8:00 for the general audience. The show is scheduled to begin at 9:00, and is approximately 90 minutes long.
