PINCHBOTTOM INVITES YOU TO A
SLUMBER PARTY IN PINK

What will happen when 11 burlesque performers spend the night together?

To all of our very best-est best friends in the whole wide world,

NASTY CANASTA and JONNY PORKPIE are hosting a SLUMBER PARTY IN PINK, and YOU'RE invited! So pack up your sleeping bag, toothbrush, and pink PJs, and head over to our house in Pinchbottom Estates, because we invited some of the most popular girls in school -- BUNNY LOVE, CLAMS CASINO, DELIRIUM TREMENS, JULIE ATLAS MUZ, LUKKI, MISS SATURN, NAUGHTIA NICE, PEEKABOO POINTE, WORLD FAMOUS *BOB* -- and *BOB* is even bringing her live pink toy poodle Movie Star! Wow! Bedtime never looked so good!

We've planned LOTS of SUPER FUN sleepover activities! We're going paint our nails (pink, of course!), and gossip, and raid the fridge, and watch scary movies, and have a pillow fight, and perform burlesque acts, and even practice kissing! Plus, we'll play ALL the best slumber party games, like "Truth Or Dare" and "Piggly-Wiggly" and "Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board"! ...and we have something VERY special in store for the first girl who falls asleep!

Ohmigod, on SATURDAY, October 14, we're going to have the best time ever! The party starts at 10pm, and like Scholastic.com says: "Slumber, or sleep-over, parties have little to do with sleep and everything to do with late-night giggling and games." (And don't worry about that psychotic murderer who escaped from the insane asylum down the street who's obsessed with burlesque performers -- I'm sure everything will be just fine!)

ABOUT PINCHBOTTOM BURLESQUE
Pinchbottom is where burlesque meets downtown theater, buys it a drink, and takes it to bed. Pinchbottom produces monthly themed burlesque shows at Collective:Unconscious. Hosts NASTY CANASTA & JONNY PORKPIE should probably not be described at the Lunt-Fontannes of the New York Burlesque scene, although they do perform together with alarming frequency. Their ecdysiastical duets and acclaimed puppet burlesque acts have appeared at The Slipper Room, RiFiFi, Galapagos Artspace, Le Scandal, Show, Southpaw, HERE, Coney Island Burlesque at the Beach, and The New York Burlesque Festival, as well as with Punch! Puppetry Cabaret, Drama of Works, Slutty Puppets, and more. Nasty Canasta won the 2006 NY Burlesque Festival award for "Performer to Watch Out For in 2007"... so when 2007 rolls around, watch out!
