Sonnets and Striptease

Local playwright Reina Hardy's Erratica is published, and we're celebrating by taking our clothes off. This event will combine smutty literature (a reading from the script) with literate smut (burlesque acts inspired by libraries, academia and Shakespeare). Feel like a little audience participation? Enter our bad poetry contest, bid on our silent auction, or join your host, the ghost of Elizabethan playwright Christopher Marlowe, for a friendly round of Strip Sonnet. It's about as much fun as you can have at 4pm on a Saturday, so grab a drink and prepare to get hot for teacher. Featuring the all-American firecracker Trixie Sparx, the whip-smart sex machine Lady Jack, the devilish Mia Morte and more! Don't miss a debut performance from a very special virgin: genuine librarian by day, ecdysiast by late afternoon, Ms. Ogdred Weary. NB: This event is totally free! A portion of drink proceeds will go to benefit the American Demigods, a local theatre company dedicated to stories about how to be human, how to be good, and how to be semidivine.
