What more is there to say?
Shrug off the squareness of reality and fall into a swingin’ re-imagination of Lewis Carroll’s classic tale of nonsense and fantasy, come along with Alice as she discovers what wonders lie behind the velvet rope at Wonderland’s nightclub, The Looking Glass. An exploration of divergent art influences, “Through The Looking Glass: The Burlesque Alice In Wonderland” mixes jazz with classical, Indian, and exotic music to set the mood as dancers mix ballet, tap, contemporary, and jazz dance into a whirlwind of whimsy and bawdy beauty. At Seattle’s The Triple Door, March 24, 25, and 26.

Did scofit and fraudit in the Davy Jones Index;
All bankholed were the financial sucktor,
And the drivelatives quantitatively fassets teased…
