Portland's Performance Series Propelling Performers to Striptease Stardom!
A nine week performance series working to help burlesque & boylesque performers build skills and try new things all in a show environment, with a touch of pageantry for silly fun! Think RuPaul's Drag Race + American Idol meets the art of burlesque with a dash of Drop Dead Gorgeous!
Thursdays from April 16 - June 11 (9:30p - 11p), performers are given a musical theme for the following week and a random skill in which to incorporate into their act! Extra points for creativity and inventiveness will help sweeten the pot, as the most creative will win a prize each week based on audience ballots and our panel of permanent and rotating judges... and the grand prize? $500 cash and a ticket to BurlyCon, the national burlesque convention in Seattle!
But the prize itself is only part of the compensation to each performer including weekly cash stipends, the chance to take the stage eight times in less than three months (more chances than many new performers get in a year!), the support and push to force creative expression, considerable promotional exposure, and we're told the camaraderie of their fellow funtestants is a grand prize in itself!
Halfway through the pageant, we'll give our funtestants a break and feature a show with the alum from the first Pastie Pageant (Thursday, May 14, 2015)
In the mix will be all new ways to test and engage our funtestants including Crafty Challenges, Duet Dalliances, and more fun games to liven up this creativity exercise mashed up into a pearly performer pageant!
Produced by Zed Phoenix and located at the Funhouse Lounge, 3432 SE 11th Ave, Portland, Oregon!
