Dita Von Teese “Burlesque: Strip Strip Hooray!” Variety Show

If ogling girls in slutty costumes isn’t your bag, consider this evening of entertainment a classy take on the Halloween-as-an-excuse-to-show-some-skin trend. Von Teese, the reigning queen of burlesque, hits NYC for a string of exceedingly rare performances, just in time for the holiday. Expect the doll-like provocateur (who, despite all appearances, turned 40 this fall) to don multiple dazzling, bejeweled outfits. Acting as Von Teese’s bustier (by which we mean "supporting") are Gotham burlesque scenesters like host Murray Hill and Dirty Martini. Be prepared to sully yourself on the secondary market—tickets are selling fast.
