The cast of the Belmont Burlesque Revue has decided to offer a little something extra this year for our favorite festival, Halloween! In addition to our regularly scheduled show on October 27th, the Belmont Burlesque Revue will also be offering a special performance on Saturday, October 13th at Martyrs' Pub (3855 N. Lincoln Avenue).
Jack Midnight and Second Cousin Joe, along with the screamingly sexy Belmont Bombshells, will bring you a mix of sultry, scary and outright silly tricks and treats carefully crafted to summon shrieks of laughter and squeals of delight. Join us for an evening packed with special guest acts including the spooky striptease of Claire de Lune, the ghastly comedy of Jared Logan and Nick Vatterot, the otherworldly magic of the Amazing Tomas and the preternatural juggling of Brad French.

Sorry kids. Phranc likes to drink. Sometimes Phranc says and does things he doesn't mean when he drinks. Sometimes Phranc and mommy fight when Phranc drinks. Phranc had too much to drink before your show on Tuesday and didn't make it. Phranc is very sorry. Don't worry--Phranc still loves y'all more than anything in the whole wide world--except maybe drinking and online gambling. Now...shhhh...go to sleep...
