About this Event
Welcome to Flirt Vonnegut's Fantasy Basement, a late-night talk show and celebration of geek culture — with a new theme, every show! In this installment, we celebrate the foundational text of POKÉMON: Gen 1.
Featuring standup from Darryl Charles! Pokémon burlesque from Lulu Blue! A mystery special guest! And more! Gotta catch 'em all!* (*by "all", we mean only the first 151 of these weird little dudes. I only know 3 evolutions of Eevee. Don't @ me.)
About Fantasy Basement:
Since 2019, Flirt Vonnegut's Fantasy Basement has pulled geek culture out from suburban basements and into bars and theatres, placing poindexters on a pedestal for a glitzy celebration of our most fervent fandoms. It's a late-night talk show complete with live comedy, special guests, sizzling burlesque, and more.
Plus, one special audience member will control the high-stake BASEMENT BUTTON™️. When triggered, the show must come to a halt to explain (in detail) what dorky inside-baseball stuff is being discussed. It's our super fun failsafe for making fandom accessible for all!
About Flirt Vonnegut:
Flirt Vonnegut is Philly's favorite burlesque emcee! He's an award-winning show host — producing, teaching, and touring bar art since 2014. Making subsculture entertaining and accessible is his favorite pastime!
