April Flowers, Spring has Sprung in the Sugar Shack

March was a spectacular month for us. RunAround Sue spent the greater part of the month planning a decadent spring for all you lovely appreciators of the Burlesque arts! We had a stellar show on March 11th at the Jalopy Theatre in Red Hook and would like to give a special thanks to Josie Rubio for her article on our series there in the Red Hook Star Revue. We also kept things hot and bothered over at the Delancey with your favorite burlesque danceparty: Shaken and Stirred. We'd like to give a special congratulaory shout out to Luma Rouge and Leland Bobbe's whose art work is currently on display at the Musum of Sex's latest exhibit: "The Nudie Artist: A Burlesque Revival."

Now our batteries are charged and are day dreams are fully loaded! Get ready for a steamy spring in the Sugar Shack.
