A featured dancer at the Lincoln Fair Burlesque Expo

Ditch you typical bar and lounge habit and add some spice to your nightlife activities with a visit to the monthly Vaudezilla Lincoln Fair Burlesque Exposition in Chicago. This month’s show is set for October 15 with two different performances at 9PM and 11PM at Lincoln Tap Room, 3010 N. Lincoln Avenue.

The American burlesque tradition was actually created in Chicago, at 1893 World’s Colombian Exposition so with that kind of pedigree, you can expect some of the genre’s best performers at the expo.  Each free show includes a host of notable Windy City burlesque talent such as Red Hot Annie, Donna Touch and Jeez Loueez, as well as the Vaudezilla Vixens troupe, swag bags and lots of sensual excitement.  Vaudezilla’s star and organizer Red Hot Annie typically performs skits and dance routine’s that recall the antics of silent film stars and legendary comediennes.  Expect lots of laughs as well as old school strip tease.  The shows are free but there’s a two drink minimum.  Try one of the three olive cocktails which are Friday night specials at the Tap room, kick back and get ready for a spicy night.
