"Eye-popping glamour...a burlesque troupe with a racy show that's not to be missed," writes Steven Moser of the Austin Chronicle
Featuring film clips of Bettie Page and other reigning queens of the burlesque stage along with live performances from an all star cast of Jigglewatts and special guests, this is one for the books!
The Huffington Post calls their show “sassy and sexy…classy entertainment.”
The Jigglewatts' ongoing burlesque residency at The Ballroom features live music, comedy, drag, variety, and world-class burlesque performances in a swanky cabaret setting. The Jigglewatts Burlesque is a perfect match for this jewel-box of a space where floor to ceiling red velvet curtains, an artfully appointed stage, and an aura of old Vaudeville add to the immersive experience. Guests can also look forward to saucy door prizes and goodie bags from Forbidden Fruit boutique.
Doors: 7:00 p.m.
Show: 8:00 p.m.
Tickets: $20 - $150
