Beyond the bright marquees and dim speakeasy, there is a timeless place where bouncy vaudeville meets soulful sounds and fresh comedy meets the glint of rhinestones. Smoke & Shadows is The Rockwell’s monthly burlesque and variety show that defies decade and genre, each time offering a new mix of performers from near and far.
August has been HOT, so we have an appropriately sizzling Labor Day show to say goodbye to summertime. Artists from all around the East Coast are joining forces with Boston’s best performers for another rollicking night of singing, dancing, laughing, and stripping:
*Avant-garde style and bold burlesque from Portland’s mistress of nightlife Aquarius Funkk
*Honey for your ears and eyes from NYC’s burlesque songstress Sweet n’ Lo
*Storytelling and queer comedy from Boston’s Chloe Cunha
*Sensual movement and bliss-permeated bellydance from Kalidasi Burgess
*The usual shenanigans from adorably dapper Sammy Temper and burlesque goofball Elsa Riot
These artists are in the same room for one night only!
Doors at 7:30pm
Show at 8pm
