Stripped Screw’s Love:Sick 2011
Here’s some of the more bizarre highlights from the conclusion of Love:Sick by Stripped Screw Burlesque, as captured by photographer Chris Blakeley:
Wiggy Stardust's balloon dance with an estrogen twist.

My personal pick for Best In Show? “Why Can’t a Woman Be More Like a Man?” (made famous by Rex Harrison in My Fair Lady) has never seen a more hilarious treatment than the exasperated delivery by Violet Tendencies of Stripped Screw Burlesque. She never fails to slay me with her comic instincts.
Violet Tendencies kills me every time.
Catch the ladies of Stripped Screw in new show Disney After Dark this June at The Rendezvous. For more of Chris Blakeley’s photography, check out his enchanting official site. -J.Price
