There are few shows that so brilliantly fuse the worlds of rock and roll, dance, and burlesque the way that House of Thee Unholy does. In a miraculous surprise not unlike a virgin birth itself, The Swedish Housewife Presents has announced this week that House of Thee Unholy #5 will return from its achingly long two and a half year hiatus for ten shows in March. The rocklesque extravaganza is truly a thing of wonder: an incredibly accomplished cast of thirteen dancers, three singers, and five musicians explode in a 70s dream of hallucinatory sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Don’t miss it: this is your early warning and the very best seats at the gorgeous Triple Door are on sale RIGHT NOW.

Screw NYE- this is where the party’s at
Our second offering to be filed under “DO NOT MISS” (not to mention a potential holiday surprise for that rabid burlesque fan in your life) is coming up a lot faster. Tickets are selling fast and furious to The Burlesque Marathon, an absolutely fab double feature at the Columbia City Theater on Sunday, December 29. The idea? A special single or double ticket deal at an extremely reasonable price featuring a jaw-dropping cast of Seattle’s latest and greatest movers and shakers, designed for the performers to film their acts before a live audience. There’s no theme, no story to follow- just a whole lot of burlesquers bringing their best. True to the show’s name, we dare you to do it “marathon” style, and stay for both the early and late shows. And oh yeah…get LOUD.
Here’s the scoop:
5-7 pm:
The Burlesque Marathon: The Early Bird Gets the Worm
8-10 pm:
The Burlesque Marathon: Good Things Come to Those Who Wait
With host Vanadium Silver, pantie wranglers Carlotta Shakin and Magnolia Monroe!

I went to the Burlesque Marathon tonight (late show) – it was fabulous! Thank you for the tip. I can’t remember/find the name of the shining star who did a Mario-themed set – can you help?
