This month’s Full Moon is one of our most popular themes: NERDLESQUE! Join us for an epic night of cosplaying burlesque entertainers. Your favorite characters from TV, movies, comics, and video games are coming to life to strut the stage. Celebrate all things nerdy… with a spicy or campy or (even better) spicy AND campy burlesque twist!
Stellya Heart and co-emcee for the evening, Lola Mischief, present the most star-studded monthly burlesque show in Wisconsin. A 90 minute BURLESQUE show featuring the best local and regional performers paired with extremely talented and often award winning headliners. A burlesque spectacular with performances ranging from classic to comedic, and maybe all the way to kinky. Sure to bring you a breathtaking, brazen, and bootylicious night out.
Join Full Moon as we showcase a different cast of performers on second Saturdays of the month at Crucible (Madison). Doors at 6pm. Show at 7pm. $18 cover at the door. Tipping encouraged. 21+ event.
Our feature entertainer of the month is none other than Mona Montague!
MONA MONTAGUE, known as “The Star-Crossed Stripper” and "The Mean, Green, Stripping Machine," has been enticing Twin Cities audiences for over 15 years with performances celebrating pop culture, humor, and sexuality. They have been featuring in festivals and shows across the country including Al-Stravaganza (an all Weird Al burlesque show), Kansas City Nerdlesque Festival (2019 Master of Nerdlesque winner), Show Me Burlesque Festival, Colorado Burlesque Festival, Oklahoma Burlesque Festival, and more. Mona is also a cast member of the Twin Cities Black Hearts Burlesque, the sponsorship and finance director of the Minneapolis Burlesque Festival, and co-executive producer of the North Star Nerdlesque Festival!
