Maddy McCarthy and Virginia VanLieshout present:

Twilight: After Dark - A Burlesque Parody

Run away with us to the blue-toned Pacific Northwest as we take you through a sluttier, gayer, and glitter-ier version of the iconic love story. Sure to knock your socks and pasties off and leave you desperately pining after your own avoidant, sparkly, Spanish Influenza victim.

This performance is for adult audiences, aged 18+. Twilight cosplay, vampire costumes, and generally slutty outfits are welcome and encouraged. Cash tips for performers are strongly suggested. Bar at the venue will be open.

Tickets $40


About Twilight: After Dark - A Burlesque Parody

Produced and devised by Maddy McCarthy and Virginia VanLieshout, “Twilight: After Dark” is a dance-comedy show following the plot of the first Twilight movie. Using burlesque, heels dance, pole dance, and comedy skits, this show is brought to life by a group of talented and generous Chicago friends and artists who all love to commit to a bit (especially when it involves glitter).
