Few among us are ambitious enough to refer to our backside as a “moneymaker.” Though burlesque performers do not typically dance purely for profit, they have turned shaking their moneymakers into the art of tease. It’s aspirational, really. Dirty Nerdy Burlesque presents practitioners of this performance art with pop-culture twists. A bevy of baddies takes on characters from cult-classic TV shows, movies and video games, infusing their routines with humor and nostalgia. Produced by Gogo Incognito (co-owner of Corsair Distillery), Dirty Nerdy Burlesque has been selling out for eight years now, with no sign of stopping. The current lineup features the chair-flipping Avo Cado from Atlanta, along with Rose Martel and Cerise de Belle (who’s making her Dirty Nerdy debut). Seductive and silly, the production is sure to knock your socks off. But keep the rest of your clothes on — leave the disrobing to the professionals.
