  • 7PM DINNER SHOW - Filthy Lucre Burlesque Club

    USD 24.00 - USD 38.00 per person

    Prepaid

    4 Dec 2024 - 22 Dec 2024
    (A TAKEOVER OF THE SHOWPALACE - THIS IS A BURLESQUE SHOW - NOT A DRAG SHOW) Charles Dickens immortal classic drops its knickers and gets down to business in FILTHY LUCRE: A Burlesque Christmas Carol. Welcome to The Filthy Lucre, where the cover charge is exorbitant, the drinks are watered down, and management steals the performers' tips. What sort of miser would would run a Club like this? Who else but Scrooge? A stripteasing twist on Dickens' classic holiday tale, when the scantily-clad spirit of her former business partner returns from the grave, the "nudest Scrooge in history" and goes on a tassel-twirling journey with the Ghosts of Burlesque Past, Present, and Future. You know the story, but never seen it quite like this.

    Had a great night here with my girlies. Dinner was good, I would say regular type of bar/restaurant food, if you are wondering. The queens were talented, fabulous and funny. Place is cozy and cute, very festive. Drinks were okay, didn’t get to try a signature one, my fault. Overall it was a fun night and a happy experience. Thank you! Xo

    You can feel the positive high energy the minute you walk in. Loved the way we were treated starting with the host at the door, very attentive, personal and all smiles. I think the high tables were the best sit in the house for a private time. The staff were all dressed up beautifully, the bar keepers were absolutely outstanding. Great drinks and food. We ordered a big sampler and was delicious. Sofia, our server was so beautiful and attentive. My husband and I had a great time and definitely we will go back next time we vist NYC. Great show applause, applause

    out of everything i did on my new york trip, broadway brunch at lips was easily the most fun event on my list. some of these girls even sang live...WHAT!? the energy was insane, the service was top notch, and the food was surprisingly delicious. they had me singing, dancing, laughing, and screaming at the top of my lungs during a time of day i'm usually asleep for. i left with so much energy, i forgot that my feet were sore and danced all the way to the subway. don't read anymore reviews, just book it!
