Dear Constant Reader,
Thanks for all the interesting suggestions for how to solve my costume issues.
After discussing it with Scratch, we decided that I had to respect the integrity of the act and the Legend who inspired it. The plan was to perform without a single change to my costume or choreography other than making sure there was $50 in my purse backstage to promptly pay the fine if my bare backside was deemed in violation of the ordinances.
Happily, the festival was able to clarify the actual current reality, as opposed to the out-of-date and poorly written ordinance, and it is unlikely that anyone will be in violation in the course of a normal burlesque act.
Well, thank goodness! But getting busted would have made a good story.
Oh, The Glamourous Life!
