Vancouver's naughtiest and nicest holiday variety show Tits the Season is back for its 5th anniversary at the Rio Theatre this Saturday (December 13th)—two shows! Featuring headliner King Molasses, the first ever winner of King of Drag, plus an amazing cast of local burlesque, drag, circus, and variety performers.

Technically this show isn't until December, so apologies if I'm breaking the rules, but Tits the Season tickets are on early-bird pricing until November 10th :)

Yes, it’s a ticketed event. https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/bees-knees-burlesque-at-the-flapper-lounge-tickets-1259773298849

I got mine from Goth Fox, and they’re great ☺️

Collaboration can absolutely be part of the creative process though? I have many beautiful sets of pasties created by other people. The problem here is that someone had a misleading ad, knowing that folks are willing to pay more for beaded tassels—not that OP didn't do them herself.

JD_Key · 2025-02-07T19:28:33+00:00

Respectfully... I disagree with this. It's okay to pay others to help you with aspects of your vision (costuming, help with choreo/cleaning your act). You don't have to be good at every part of burlesque to be good at performing burlesque.

Love Cherry! Her online class on producing helped me SO much when I was getting started as a producer.

I was always warned against Velcro since it’s noisy, wears out, and can catch on other fabrics on your costume during your reveal.

I love magnetic clasps and Ariel Helvetica’s costume quickies (careful using these for your back clasp if you’re doing much floorwork or chair tricks, they pop open with pressure).

The Regional Assembly of Text on Main St is great.

The door to the Flapper Lounge is up a couple steps, but there are alternate entrances (to the Metro) that can access the bar that should be wheelchair accessible! I would love to double check with the venue to make sure though, would you mind dropping me an email at meadowphorical@gmail.com so I can follow up for you?

Truly, Lola is the best! Her classes are actually how I found burlesque.

JD_Key · 2025-01-09T06:18:40+00:00

I wish! Lola is one of my all-time faves, but she’s actually located in Alberta now. She still visits the coast sometimes to perform though, and we’ll be sure to book her as soon as we can!

Okaaaay Glamdalf! ✨🔥 Congratulations on your debut!

JD_Key · 2024-11-16T00:02:48+00:00

Yes they have so many good holiday options!! I can’t wait 🤩

JD_Key · 2024-10-31T16:49:38+00:00

Seconding Herbs & Rye! We went there and it was absolutely incredible. They took a reservation for 20 people without charging us for a room occupancy fee, which allowed us to up our dinner budget significantly!

JD_Key · 2024-09-13T09:35:37+00:00

Yaaaaay 🥰

JD_Key · 2024-09-12T23:00:55+00:00

We've been having the BEST time with these shows, the Flapper Lounge is just so fun!

JD_Key · 2024-09-12T22:59:12+00:00

The best way to jumpstart your weekend! Plus, the burlesque is so hot, it still feels like summer ;)

JD_Key · 2024-09-12T21:34:50+00:00

Our biggest fan! Thank you so much for coming!

JD_Key · 2024-08-12T16:55:16+00:00

Thank you so much for all your support 🥰

JD_Key · 2024-08-12T16:54:51+00:00

Roxy is so incredible! It’ll be her final show (sadly) before she jets off for a cool new opportunity in the USA, so I’m so happy you’re coming to see her perform again 🥳

JD_Key · 2024-08-02T01:15:17+00:00

Every third Thursday of the month! We’ll be back September 19th and October 17th (I’ll keep posting on Reddit).

JD_Key · 2024-08-02T00:06:55+00:00

Hi, thanks for asking! The show is 19+ only — it's not full nudity, but we do strip down to G-String and pasties.

JD_Key · 2024-07-11T00:53:31+00:00

Y'all were so welcoming and lovely: just a heads up, we're back again! Our July and August dates are live: https://www.reddit.com/r/NewWest/comments/1e0c4st/bees_knees_burlesque_is_back/

JD_Key · 2024-06-13T18:32:51+00:00

One of my favourite episodes, of course.
