What did you miss last week? Here is your weekly recap provided by Miss Scooter Pie:

This week's show was super-special for MANY reasons; one of which being the premiere of our brand-new, mega-exciting shiny GAME DICE!! Come see what it is if you are not in the know. Experience it for yourself. Other obvious reasons absolutely included wild n' crazy featured performer Fem Appeal, wild n' crazy guest Albert Cadabra, late-night caboose Gemini Rising, the S&S debut of Coco Masala, and- dayumm!- the all-night, all-out gogo skills of Tiny D. Jokes were told by RunAround Sue (she's VERY funny, you know). Delicious food from the preshow rooftop cookout was consumed. Yummy drinks were prepared by our gorgeous bartender Nora. Scooter Pie had an uncharacteristically foul mouth. And we all learned something new about DJ Jess..
Come see what all of this madness is about next week! XO


And now, on to the peeking!!

PANDORA

Pandora, the Greek Goddess of Burlesque, the scintillator of the tittilation from peel to reveal, she has performed her fine feathered fan dance in NYC, LA and across the pond in London and Paris.

1. What does Burlesque mean to you?

Burlesque to me is the scintillation of the tittilation from peel to reveal, now try saying that fast over and over again.


2. How did you choose your name?

I've always loved the name Pandora and I'm Greek so I thought it would be fitting.



3. Who was your first celebrity crush?

I would have to say Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing



4. What are you reading these days and why?

I am reading Venus in Furs I also do a tribute act that includes Furs and Leather two of my favorite things.



5. What is your favorite performance antedote?

I was performing at Duane Park a burlesque dinner cabaret, I had a small whip tucked into my corset during my act I pulled it out and spun it around my finger and it flew off and landed in someone's dinner plate to which I responded with "It's what's for dinner"

If you missed last week, check out Miss Scooter Pie's weekly recap:

We had a jam-packed, slam-dunk of a show this week, my friends- check it out (and wipe the drool off your face): Dottie Dynamo shook it all night as our gogo/stage kitten extraordinaire. Corvette LeFace made us think naughty thoughts about church during her S&S debut. Guest Voodoo Onyx played strip poker with a volunteer from the audience.. and lost (or should we say, the crowd won). Our caboose Minnie Tonka, having recently returned from a two-week stint in Alaska, closed things out for the night but (..butt) good, and featured performer Harvest Moon amazed us all with her thrilling, superbendy stunts and all-around hotness. We raffled off another super special Shaken & Stirred care package to a lucky winner, and our guest dj KICKED ASS right up til 2am. As RunAround Sue would say, "WHAT!!!!!". See you soon xoxo!


And now, On with the Peaking!!:

Featured Performer Profile – FEM APPEAL



1. What does Burlesque mean to you?

It's the best of Comedy, Improv, Dance and Halloween all rolled into 4 minutes or less.
It's DIY and I'm in charge!
AND a great way to channel my insanity.



2. How did you choose your name?

I wanted to embody a kick-ass superhero or secret agent and I thought of Emma Peel from The Avengers. Fem Appeal is a play on her name and it also works 'cause I often impersonate dudes.



3. Who was your first celebrity crush?

Peter DeLuise from 21 Jumpstreet.


4. What are you reading these days and why?

Anthony Bourdain's The Nasty Bits.

I love men, food and traveling and he has a wonderful way of depicting the passions of the mind, body and spirit. Food is sexy.



5. What is your favorite performance anecdote?

I had my heart set on doing Pennywise The Clown (Stephen King's IT) for Hotsy Totsy's Halloween show, but they had booked ClownKong and I didn't want to step on his clown shoes, so I came up with my Sleestak (Land of the Lost) act. A guy came up to me afterwards and said, "OMG, the crystals! You had the crystals!"
That made my night. That's who I like to perform for.



6. Please distill your life philosophy into either a couplet or haiku:

A lover of leaps

Ready the teleporter

The path to my dreams


7. How can the people find out more about you?

Dance away your worries on our super fine dancefloor and enjoy a complimentary shot or two of Huckleberry Vodka. This week at The Delancey we are featuring HARVEST MOON - international sensation of burlesque, the aerial arts, and contortion. Revving up the lineup with Ms Moon are none other than the mesmerizing VOODOO ONYX and the southern sass and class of FLEUR DE LYS. Be there for the Sugar Shack Debut of C0RVETTE LA FACE and enjoy the gogo goodness of the darling DOTTIE DYNAMO. Never a cover, always a good time. Get there early for the 5$ rooftop cook out!

And now, on to the peeking:

HARVEST MOON

1. What does Burlesque mean to you?

Creatively projecting an array of splendor and skill through the medium of flesh.



2. How did you choose your name?
It was given to me in part by my parents when I was born, and in part by some pervert I met at the Pussycat Lounge strip bar in Manhattan.



3. Who was your first celebrity crush?
I think it was Bob Dylan? does that count?



4. What are you reading these days and why?
The New Yorker magazine... because i'm catching up on this huge stack of them I haven't been able to get to due to school reading.



5. What is your favorite performance antecdote?

the Exotic world pageant hasn't always been so organized. One year, while my troupe and I were up on stage in the ready-go position the DJ hit the " record " button on the tape deck instead of play. Yes, those were the days when you could bring a tape to the show. Luckily, I had a back up tape in the glove compartment of my car. I ran across the field to get it while the others waited patiently onstage. What a crazy moment...



6. Please distill your life philosophy into either a couplet or haiku:
To every burlesque darling who'll dare grace a stage, reinvent yourself no matter what age.
