Sure, you've heard of wine pairings. But what about books and burlesque pairings?
During this show at Caveat on Saturday, March 8, award-winning authors will read excerpts from their new books. Then, a burlesque or drag performer will present a spectacular new act they created that was inspired by the book pairing.
This show features exciting award-winning and diverse authors reading excerpts from their new books: You'll Never Believe Me by Kari Ferrell paired with Fortune Cookie; Sweet Nothings: Confessions of a Candy Lover by Sarah Perry paired with Sideshow Scandal;
Loca by Alejandro Heredia paired with Chestnut Belafonte; City of Laughter by Temim Fruchter paired with Racy DeClare; The Witches of El Paso by Luis Jaramillo paired with Whiskey Jules. The show's produced and hosted by Fortune Cookie.
Local bookstore Book Club Bar (197 East 3rd Street) will sell signed copies of all the books featured at the show.
Time Out tip: Tickets go fast for this show, but if it sells out, there will be a waitlist at the door. There's also a livestream option.
