The NEW Taboo Revue

Friday November 21st @ The WISE Hall (1882 Adanac St. @ Victoria Dr. just off Commercial Dr.)

Vancouver's biggest and longest running Burlesque Variety show is back with a New Venue, a New Format, New Performers and lots of New Acts!

Passion For Justice

We've moved the Revue to the Wise Hall (at Victoria and Adanac, just off the drive) which lets us perform in a bigger room and on a bigger stage. So guess what that means, more performers! So many more that we've had to change the whole format of the show to make room. You won't be seeing as much of the Gameshow games as before but you will be seeing a lot more high quality Burlesque performances including the big group numbers the Revue is renowned for.

What won't be changing is the quality and originality that has made the Taboo Revue a Vancouver Burlesque institution. As always you will see a wide range of singing, dancing, comedy and striptease. You will see some of Vancouver's top Burlesque performers alongside some of the city's newest up-and-comers and you will see why Vancouver has one of the strongest Burlesque communities in the world!

This action packed Revue will star Melody Mangler, Lola Lockeheart, April O'Peel, Joanie Gyoza, Bonbon Bombay, Cuntry Kisses, Corvetta Curves, Vava Vunderbust, Voodoo Pixie, Coco Cinders, Sparkle Plenty, Vicki VonPommes, Rosie Delight and Barishnikox. Hosted by Evil Bastard and Violet Femme. That's right, sixteen performers all shakin' their stuff for you!

All proceeds from the Taboo Revue go to Screaming Chicken Theatrical Society, a not-for-profit organization that tries to make Vancouver a more entertaining place to live

Doors at 9pm, show at 10pm
Tickets $15 advance, $18 at the door
Advance tickets will be available from cast members and online (details coming soon)
