Dear Constant Reader,
Along with t-shirts, hair flowers, and photos, we sell pasties at our shows. I make them all by hand. All sequins and tassels are securely sewn on and the pasties are lined with comfy ultrasuede. But that’s not really my point.
In A (Re)Movable Feast there is a banana number. It’s really the whole reason we have a food & drink themed show. Backstage during Unlucky in Love someone (who will remain anonymous) said “Scratch will never let us wear banana costumes!” Boy, was she wrong!

You have 4 chances left to see the Boston Babydoll Banana Dance — July 13th and 14th in Portland, ME and July 27th and 28th in Portsmouth, NH!
P.S. Don’t forget to vote for The Boston Academy of Burlesque Education (search on our name or amongst businesses in Allston, MA).
Oh, The Glamourous Life!
