| Land of the Sweets: The Burlesque Nutcracker |
Lily Verlaine and Jasper McCann return to the Triple Door for Land of the Sweets: The Burlesque Nutcracker on December 18, 19 and 20. A spectacle of ecdysiastic pageantry, Land of the Sweets sets the Nutcracker to a swing-era soundtrack and gives the ballet a bawdy makeover.
Jasper McCann hosts the revamped classic featuring an all-star cast from Seattle's Burlesque A-list, featuring Miss Indigo Blue, Kitten La Rue, The Swedish Housewife, Babette La Fave, Waxie Moon and Lily Verlaine. After you've come in from the opening snowstorm, Verlaine, McCann and company invite you to trim the tree and warm up with exotic delicacies from the far corners of the globe.
We return this year to find the Land of the Sweets has changed & but only for the better! The show that was standing-room-only four times last year has even more of what the discriminating burlesque aficionado has come to expect from a Verlaine & McCann production! This year's show includes new numbers, new characters (including performances by the Northwest's foremost aerial troupe, The Aerialistas) and a new way of doing things plus more glamour & glitz, more singin' & swingin', more gin and more skin! Land of the Sweets turns the holiday event you've dreaded since childhood into an unpretentious smash-up of classical dance and vintage bump at the hepist winter party since the end of prohibition! Make Land of the Sweets your new holiday tradition!
