The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Deck the halls with books and burlesque as Lacy Productions presents Booklover’s Burlesque: The Holiday Edition. Booklover’s Burlesque is the world’s sexiest literary salon, pairing titillating, inspiring, and empowering book readings with burlesque, boylesque, and draglesque performances in one show. Professional readers, actors, and/or local authors and writers read aloud a three to five-minute piece of poetry, fiction (from any genre), memoir, non-fiction, etc, which is then followed by a burlesque performance inspired by the piece. Raise your cocktails and candy canes to a good Yule and a naughty New Year by sharing and interpreting classic and beloved holiday stories as only Booklover’s Burlesque can.

This event is 21 and over.

Come curious. Leave transformed.
