If you have been invited to see a burlesque show with some friends, or if you are curious about the whole prospect of this type of entertainment, knowing what to expect can make your experience a bit more entertaining. Many people do not understand the premise of burlesque, and figure they are going to see women dancing around without their clothes on; they automatically think, strippers. Burlesque, however, is more than just a strip show.
Comedy Is Intertwined With Naughtiness
Burlesque shows are basically variety shows, that have several features mixed into them. They are provocative in nature, and really get you hot and bothered with their sexual innuendos. They use plenty of comedy to covey points to those spectating. They also have plenty of musical numbers, including solos and an all-female chorus. Seeing these women dance, make jokes, and show their body parts to the public is rather surreal, but very appealing to many people. Not only are the performers themselves artists, but the people who had written the skits, those in charge of props, and those who wrote the music, are also artists to appreciate.
