The Brick Presents NERDLESQUE 11/13, 12/11

THE BRICK THEATER, INC. in association with Sneaky Snake Productions and Captain Sharky's Historical Gender Equality Reactualization Burlesque Society present NERDLESQUE- A continuing Nerd Burlesque performing on the Second Saturday of each month!

Saturday, November 13, 11:00 PM
Saturday, December 11, 11:00 PM

Once marginalized and outcast, today's nerds dominate modern culture, from movies to gaming to literature-and now, at last, burlesque. Whether you're a closet dungeon master, are itching to administer a Vulcan nerve pinch, or just want to share your bug collection with someone who understands, NERDLESQUE is here for you.

On November 13, an exceptionally nerdy and devastatingly hot array of freaks, geeks, and social misfits will explore what is funny, sexy, and compelling about nerd culture. Power up your warp drive, hop into your TARDIS, leap aboard your Segway, and come experience the tantalizing geekfest that is NERDLESQUE.

Featuring:
Bunny Love
Harvest Moon
Makin' Whoopee
