The Beulaville Baptist Book Club Presents: A Bur-less-Q Nutcracker!
It seems the Velvet Kittens Burlesque Dancers are stuck in Beulaville because their van broke down on their way to New Orleans. Madge, of the Beulaville Baptist Book Club, has never heard of Burlesque, or as she pronounces it "Bur-less-Q", and in an act of necessity hires the dance troupe to do "The Nutcracker" for the book club fundraiser. The end result? The most original, unusual, and comical Nutcracker you have ever seen!
Here’s a sample of what the press and critics have said about the MBS show inspired by the Velvet Kitten Burlesque Dancers:
“Whoo-hoo!”
Gini Moscorro – KERA FM
“An unqualified hoot.
Highly recommended.”
Mike Orren – PegasusNews.com
“MBS Productions' A Bur-Less-Q Nutcracker transcends the conventional with gleeful delight and sends its audience out into the night with ho ho ho holiday hubba-hubba.”
Alexandra Bonifield – PegasusNews.com
“The choreography by Mark-Brian Sonna and
Jana Edele, is ingenious, inspired and amusing. By turns graceful and bawdy, with just the right balance of edification and dance-hall shimmy.”
Christopher Soden – Edge Dallas
“Nothing enlivens family holiday gatherings quite like a burlesque routine.”
Jessey Hughey – Dallas Observer
“..is as ridiculously fun as its title suggests….
This is a ‘Nutcracker’ for anyone who always wanted to chuckle during the ballet but didn't feel they could. Here, it's encouraged.”
Arnold Wayne Jones – Dallas Voice
“See a naughty Nutcracker…The fictional Beaulaville is possibly the only place on earth not familiar with burlesque, and high comedy ensues when the characters (and the audience) get exposed to it.”
S. Anne Durham – Dallas Observer
