Velvet Hammer Burlesque Salon Book Reading and Costume Exhibition
Thursday, March 27th. From 7.00- 9pm FREE!
Michelle Carr and her vision kick started the current era of Neo-Burlesque and caused a furor on stages worldwide. Michelle Carr, Pleasant Gehman and Kristian Hoffman will be reading the unedited text from the brand new book ‘Velvet Hammer Burlesque’ and signing books after wards. On display will be 10 of the most elaborately designed and intricately constructed handmade costumes featured in the Velvet Hammer Burlesque created by the performers. This beautiful coffee table book presents photographs of the group’s voluptuous ensemble of dancers and performers from their savvy on-stage performances to an intimate glimpse behind the curtain. Vivacious women of all shapes and sizes (the Velvet Hammer troupe welcomed organic individuality) radiated an authentic, raw energy in their routines that mesmerized the audience until (almost) the last shred of clothing was stripped away! Burlesque Hall of Fame Donation! 10% of the sales from this event will be donated to the Exotic World Museum, which is the only museum in the world dedicated to preserving the art and artifacts from the golden age of burlesque! www.burlesquehall.com
