New York City Burlesque
 
I asked this question before and got a handful of links to places but it seems that those places are all no longer doing their burlesque shows!
Can anyone point me to non-strip-club style burlesque shows in Manhattan? My wife and I will be visiting between Xmas and New Years and would like to catch a show. Thanks!

Isn't there a listing in the back of Time Out NY?

The online Time Out NY has some listings but they are for shows that are no longer happening. I cannot find current listings. Maybe the print version, but I don't have access to that.

This one offers the same listings plus more and a whole lot of reviews which may or may not be helpful.

If you look at timeout when you arrive it will have stuff going on now - also pick up the magazine.

I can't personally vouch for any of these but I know there's a fair amount of burlesque in Brooklyn. Did a search for "Burlesque and Brooklyn" and found a website that lists upcoming events in both Brooklyn and Manhattan.

Maybe there's something here that would work:

Burlesque Blitz - December 26-December 30

Wed/Thurs/Fri/Sat - Slipper room as mentioned above:

In Brooklyn
12/26 - http://www.galapagosartspace.com/events.html#122609
(This is a pretty new arts space in DUMBO)

The website I found these on:

Hope you have a great trip!
