A Burlesque & Vaudeville Odyssey Inspired By Science Fiction

Blast-Off Burlesque presents The Future of TomorrowJune 17 and 19, 2010 at 7 Stages. Part of Blast-Off’s periodic SciFi-A-GoGo series, this neo-burlesque variety show returns Blast-Off to its science fiction-inspired roots.

The Future of Tomorrow features the premieres of several new ensemble and solo acts that will challenge preconceived notions of burlesque: beyond striptease, there will be drag and double-drag, acrobatics accompanied by live music, dance performance integrated with video, and much more. Some of the acts will be tributes to well-known stories, TV shows or movies; some will be Blast-Off’s unique take on what makes for sci-fi. Guest performances will be from Renea’ Le’Roux (a competitor for Miss Exotic World 2010), Katherine Lashe, Ursula Undress, Flight of Swallows, Hoopsy Daisy, and Reget St. Charles.

The feature shows on Saturday, June 19th are at 7:30 and 10PM. Admission is $15 in advance, $17 day of show. The preview show is at 9PM on Thursday, June 17; tickets are $10 advance and $12 at the door. Doors open approximately an hour prior to the show start time, and each show includes a 10-minute intermission. Advance will-call tickets and additional details are available online at scifi-a-gogo.com.
