Going strong for over a year now, Brews & Burlesque at Strangeways Brewing just keeps rolling on! This Valentine’s Day weekend, they’ll be expanding their offerings from one night to two, for a special Valentine’s Weekend “Dubbel Feature”! (That’s a beer joke, or so I’m told.) Last year’s Valentine’s Day Brews & Burlesque sold out so quickly that this year, those sweethearts at Strangeways and Blacklist Burlesque want to make sure everyone gets a chance to come enjoy the sexy, romantic burlesque performances that will be taking place on both nights.

In addition to your usual Brews & Burlesque favorites (such as Moxie LaBouche and Dante The Inferno), these shows will bring you three special guests from beyond the borders of RVA. Both evenings will feature performances from Bella La Blanc, DC’s award-winning veteran burlesque performer, known as “the Stepford Wife gone wild;” as well as Xander Lovecraft, the traveling “vaudevillian misfit & sideshow bad boy” from Missouri. In addition, Friday night will feature an appearance by Deanna Deadly, the burlesque performer/DJ/actor and member of the all-female DJ crew Psychobitches Outta Chicago–so you know she’s for real!

You’ll get all this and more if you make it out to the Valentine’s Weekend “Dubbel Feature” from Brews & Burlesque and Strangeways Brewing–and if you’re a fan of burlesque from RVA and beyond, you won’t wanna miss it!

WHAT: Brews & Burlesque Valentine’s Weekend “Dubbel Feature” at Strangeways Brewing!
WHERE: Strangeways Brewing, 2277A Dabney Rd
WHEN: Friday, February 13 & Saturday, February 14–Theatre doors open at 8:30 PM both days
ADMISSION: $9 in advance/$12 at the door–order tickets HERE

Last year’s event sold out in advance, so be sure you order your tickets now! OR, if you would rather see Saturday evening’s show for FREE, you’re in luck, because your pals at RVA Mag have a pair of tickets for that show to give away! Just plug your info into the widget below, and try your luck! Keep an eye out for extra chances to win, and enter by Friday at noon, because that’s when we’re shutting this whole thing down and picking a winner!
