Beautiful Neko

Dec 13

Buddies in Bad Times Theatre

She’s sweet but deadly. She’s always up to something… and it’s usually no good. A femme fatale is always playing the long con and the long game. And the game is using her feminine wiles to survive and thrive, at any cost. What if a femme fatale is a woman who knows how to survive? What if a femme fatale is simply an unapologetic woman?

Beautiful Neko explores themes of femininity, sexuality and sensuality, power, deviancy and resistance. A stage full of dangerous and daring showgirls who know that the only way to bloom is to bloom dangerously. Come for a good time with some bad women. Starring the femmes fatales talents of…. Suki TsunamiIvory, Aza Lia, Ravyn Wngz, Petra Queen Of the Nile, Irmita La Dulce, Belle Jumelles. Curated and hosted by Dainty Smith. Music by El Toro
