Tune your radio dial - and your eyes - to the Sweet And Nasty Burlesque Mystery Hour for heart-pounding suspense and jaw-dropping striptease, presented live onstage. Nasty Canasta, "Brooklyn's greatest burlesque star" (The Brooklyn Paper), brings an original ecydiastical radio mystery to the stage of the Kraine Theater on Wednesday, December 29th with a broadcast too spicy for the airwaves: you'll have to hear (and see) this for yourself!

When striptease starlet Ruby Valentine turns up dead in the Hollywood hills, it's up to the Naked Detective Nasty Canasta and her helpful housegirl Sapphire Jones to uncover the murderer ... along with everything else. On the backlots and sound stages of Cli-Max Studios they find a leading man with a secret, an unorthodox studio chaplain, a costumer who just can't stay dressed - and of course, plenty of burlesque beauties - as they solve the case of "The Falling Starlet." Also featuring the vocal (and visual) talents of Gal Friday, Tigger! and Victoria Privates; plus live sound effects by special guest Michael Johnson of the W-WOW Radio Mystery Hour.

"The Golden Age of Radio was an amazing time," says Canasta. "Mystery and suspense, adventure, romance, comedy - classic radio had it all ... except nudity. Well, we thought it was about time to fix that."

Since 2006 Sweet and Nasty has been adding its own unique mix of glam camp, historical fact, and blatant lies to the New York burlesque scene, and currently appears monthly on the Bowery. Their December special, "The Falling Starlet," is part of the 2010 Holiday Burlesque Blitz at the Kraine Theater: a week-long festival of new, theatrical burlesque extravaganzas from Sweet & Nasty, Bastard Keith, Revealed Burlesque and more (full schedule available at www.wasabassco.com).

Tune in to Nasty Canasta, Sapphire Jones, Gal Friday, Victoria Privates, Tigger!, Miss Ruby Valentine and Michael Johnson for Sweet and Nasty's "The Falling Starlet," an original burlesque radio mystery onstage at the Kraine Theater for one night only - Wednesday, December 29th at 10:00 pm.
