Pinchbottom Burlesque today announced the first round of guest stars for the holiday extravaganza FILTHY LUCRE: A Burlesque Christmas Carol, which will run from December 2-13 at Walkerspace in TriBeCa. In addition to Pinchbottom star Nasty Canasta as Scrooge, Jonny Porkpie as Marley, and Anita Cookie, Bastard Keith, Naughtia Nice, Scott Rayow, and Tigger!, the event will feature a rotating cast of guest stars that includes the best in New York City Burlesque, and 10+ award-winners from the Burlesque Hall of Fame, including three Miss Exotic World winners.

The list, which would be the envy of any burlesque producer in the world, includes such striptease luminaries as Albert Cadabra, Angie Pontani, Bambi the Mermaid, Bird of Paradise, Bunny Love, Clams Casino, Darlinda Just Darlinda, Delirium Tremens, Dirty Martini, Gal Friday, GiGi La Femme, Harvest Moon, Jezebel Express, Jo Boobs, Julie Atlas Muz, Legs Malone, Leroi the Girl Boi, Little Brooklyn, Melody Sweets, Minnie Tonka, Ms Tickle, Peekaboo Pointe, Ruby Valentine, Sapphire Jones, and more!

These 25+ guest stars will perform in rotation over the course of the two-week run, portraying the three ghosts and the spurned love interest of Scrooge's youth. A full lineup and schedule is available at http://www.pinchbottom.com/filthylucre/

"I couldn't be more thrilled to be working once again with these brilliant talents," said Nasty Canasta. "And I have no doubt that their sensual portrayals of the ghosts of Burlesque past, present, and future, will warm the cockles of any Scrooge's heart-not to mention the regions a bit lower down."

FILTHY LUCRE runs the first two weeks of December, Thursday through Saturday at 8:00pm, Sunday at 7:00pm at Walkerspace, 46 Walker Street, TriBeCa. The run includes a sneak preview Wednesday December 2 at 8:00pm, NAKED GIRLS READING A CHRISTMAS CAROL: Dickens Original Performance Text on Wednesday December 9 @ 8:00pm, and a special Hanukkah Edition of FILTHY LUCRE on Thursday, December 10 at 10:00pm.

ABOUT PINCHBOTTOM
Pinchbottom is where burlesque meets theater, buys it a drink and takes it to bed. The brainchild of Nasty Canasta & Jonny Porkpie (who should probably not be described at the Lunt-Fontannes of the New York Burlesque scene, although they do perform together with alarming frequency), Pinchbottom recently celebrated its fifth anniversary, and in December will debut a brand-new holiday show "FILTHY LUCRE: A (burlesque) Christmas Carol" for a two-week run. Named the "Best Burlesque in NY" by New York Magazine and called "The Best Burlesque Show in Town" by The Village Voice, Pinchbottom is the winner of the first-ever "Most Innovative" award from The Burlesque Hall of Fame. "Daring, funny, imaginative, and titillating to all tastes" - The Sunday Telegraph (UK) "Comedy and partial nudity go remarkably well together. Where else can you hoot, whistle, and bust a gut laughing?" -NY Theatre.com; "Hilarious burlesque" -Next Magazine; "Your perverted genre fantasies have come shimmying to life" -Time Out New York
