...burlesque.

No, seriously. Artistic striptease confounds oblivion.

Welcome, friends, to THE LAST BURLESQUE SHOW IN THE WORLD, Pinchbottom's first all-new piece of 2010. An epic metaphysical journey through the twisted muscle of the human heart, the jagged crevices of the creative mind, the amorphous discord of the libido, and the insouciant profundity of pants-dropping, THE LAST BURLESQUE SHOW IN THE WORLD stars Pinchbottom co-creator Jonny Porkpie, featuring Clams Casino, Jo Boobs, Legs Malone, Naughtia Nice, and Mat "Sealboy" Fraser, with special guest stars Amber Ray, Gal Friday, Harvest Moon, Julie Atlas Muz, Leroi the Girl Boi, Peekaboo Pointe, Sapphire Jones, Tigger!, Veronica Varlow, and more. It is--more literally than one can possibly convey in the ambiguous tumult of language--the ultimate Pinchbottom show.

Pinchbottom returns to Performance Space 122 as part of the undergroundzero festival, one of the last productions in the space before it closes down.

Charles Dickens immortal classic finally drops its knickers and gets down to business. "A Christmas Carol is perhaps my absolute favorite piece of literature," says Pinchbottom co-producer Nasty Canasta, who will play the Scrooge character in the show. "But there has always been one thing missing from the classic tale... and that is, of course, sexy Victorian-era vixens lasciviously removing their knickers." According to Jonny Porkpie, who plays Marley's Ghost and is adapting the story for the burlesque stage, the Pinchbottom version will not stray far from the original text. "Other than changing the Scrooge character to a woman, his counting house to a strip club, and adding boobs every few minutes"--he said--"the show will be completely faithful to Dickens." "I mean, in its own way," Porkpie clarified. "Perhaps it might be more accurate to say that the show and Dickens will have an open relationship."

Tempers flare, bodices rip, tassels twirl... and Porkpie ends up dead. So co-producer Nasty Canasta dons her detective pasties and attempts to uncover the murderer before the final curtain -- with a little help from you. Pinchbottom marks the launch of "The Corpse Wore Pasties" (Hard Case Crime, November 24) with a brand-new theatrical event: LURID PULP!, an interactive-murder-mystery-book-release-party-burlesque-show. New York's top burlesque stars will quite literally flesh out the characters in "The Corpse Wore Pasties" by recreating the striptease numbers described in Porkpie's book. Nasty Canasta, Clams Casino, Dirty Martini, GiGi La Femme, Jo Boobs, Madame Rosebud -- as well as the author himself -- will make the words leap off the page, and out of their undergarments. http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/luridpulp/ http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/luridpulp/ top Sat, 21 Nov 2009 20:00:00 -0500 When Hugo J. Porkenbush, house doctor to the Coney Island Sideshow, accidentally incapacitates all the performers, he has to find replacement acts -- and fast! So he recruits a pair of Boardwalk grifters (Nasto & Beebo) to shanghai "volunteers" for the show. But when, instead of hapless victims, they abduct a bevy of burlesque performers from the Mermaid Parade, the show goes on... a lot further than anyone expected! http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/coneymarx/ http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/coneymarx/ next top Fri, 21 Aug 2009 22:00:00 -0500 INCOMING - FINAL TRANSMISSION ...

But which of the mysteriously sexy guests at Pinchbottom Manor is the killer? Quirky British detectives Nasty Canasta and Jonny Porkpie are searching for clues in every pair of panties, but they have their work cut out for them -- because in this mystery, every suspect is drop-dead gorgeous. http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/whodunnit/ http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/whodunnit/ top Sat, 17 Jan 2009 22:00:00 -0500 Pretençión is the place where Mystery sits at a table with Elegance, and Imagination orders a round of drinks before dinner. It is a world where those drinks are served by a pompous clown. Join Pinchbottom on a sensual quest for Pretençión, an imaginary yet sexy element that turns burlesque performers from "Jerkques" (ordinary people) into self-important "Cirques": infuriatingly magical, unendurably spellbinding artistes who peel away the mundane with every layer of clothing.

Ecdysiastical alchemist Jonny Porkpie calls forth the diabolical Nasty Canasta to seduce guests with all the temptations that the underworld can offer: burlesque beauties bent to a fiendish will; feats of sideshow and variety skill purchased at an unthinkable price; humor with a dark intent. Travel with sirens, freaks, and demons on a burlesque tour of the nether regions. Because when Pinchbottom makes a deal with the devil, it's going to get hot. http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/faust/ http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/faust/ upcoming Fri, 01 Aug 2008 18:53:44 -0500 Golden Boobs of Doom were worshipped by the Ancient Burlesquians as a symbol of all that was naked and sexy in the world. When that ribald civilization fell, the legend of the Boobs sagged with time... until Nastyana Jones --an archeologist specializing in erotic artifacts--finds a pornographic map that will lead her down the glory trail to adventure, and set her against the evil Baron Schweintörte in a race to uncover the gilded bazooms.]]> http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/adventure/ http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/adventure/ Fri, 20 Jun 2008 22:00:00 -0500 The Rack Pack is back! And they're bringing "the strip" to Atlantic City. But when a seedy casino owner cancels their hit show, there's only one way for these cats to get their revenge... a swingin' naked heist. Nasty Canasta, Jonny Porkpie and their crew of hardening criminals will have to use all the "special skills" they can muster to slip past casino security and break into the vault.

HOW to SEX (a do-it-yourself guide) uncovers every aspect of intercourse in a series of easy-to-watch burlesque-based lessons, all presented live on stage. From choosing the best partner or equipment -- to accurately undressing -- to correctly putting the right thing in, around, or on the other thing -- to cleaning up afterwards, the ins and outs of this difficult and confusing task are examined in tassel-twirling detail in this burlesque self-help seminar. http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/sex/ http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/sex/ Thu, 28 Feb 2008 20:43:34 -0500 Now in its 3rd year! A stocking-stuffer that takes on the holidays as only Pinchbottom can; from behind. When Nasty Canasta takes charge of the Holiday Pageant, she decides to celebrate with nudity, using burlesque stars for sexy tributes to the season. But the grinch-like (but legally distinct) "Pinch" (Jonny Porkpie) wants to keep Xmas clean and pure as the virgin snow, and so dresses up like a Burlesque Santa and sets out to kidnap each and every performer in Nasty's show. Burlesque Santa's sack is full of goodies for all the bad boys and girls. And the best part is... these presents unwrap themselves! 12/28/09 edition stars Nasty Canasta and Jonny Porkpie, with Julie Atlas Muz, Little Brooklyn, Legs Malone, Mat "Sealboy" Fraser, Sapphire Jones. http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/pinchstolexmas/ http://www.pinchbottom.com/shows/pinchstolexmas/ Wed, 27 Feb 2008 08:46:06 -0500
