A Hotsy Totsy Burlesque Tribute to The Princess Bride at The Slipper Room

Want to see burlesque performances of your favorite characters from The Princess Bride? - All we can say is: “As you wish!”

Handsome Brad has the sniffles, but Cherry Pitz has called in his dear old Grandpa to spend some time with him, pinch his cheeks, and read him a story of adventure, piracy, duels, ROUSs, and yes, even some kissing.

Meanwhile, the residents at the Home for Wayward Girls and Fallen Women are happy to help—by acting out all his favorite scenes from the epic classic The Princess Bride.

Hosted by: Cherry Pitz and Handsome Brad Special Co-Host: Andy Ross Featuring Performances By: Persé Fanny, Vincent Gallant, Bimini Cricket, Dylan Mary Jane & Rory Scholl Gogo by: Le Grand Chaton

Join us as we journey to the land of Florin for an epic nerdlesque adventure filled with swashbuckling, sass, and striptease. Will Westley rescue Buttercup from the clutches of Prince Humperdinck? Will Inigo finally get revenge for his father? Will the ROUS behave himself backstage? (Spoiler: he won’t.) Expect true love, daring duels, miracle cures, and sexy surprises as our cast brings the beloved fairy tale—and all its absurd glory—to rhinestoned, high-camp life.

In this loving tribute to The Princess Bride—the 1987 cult classic film based on William Goldman’s 1973 novel—we celebrate a tale that has charmed generations with its perfect blend of romance, sword fights, satire, and endlessly quotable wit. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or discovering the story for the first time, this is a burlesque fantasy you won’t want to miss. - Inconceivable? Hardly.

Hotsy Totsy Burlesque just turned 18! Since our debut in April 2007, we've dazzled packed houses with monthly nerdlesque tributes to cult classics and beloved fandoms. Audiences keep coming back for the wild plot twists, dazzling costumes, and the sheer joy of our long-running theatrical burlesque soap opera.

Each month, you're invited to The Home for Wayward Girls and Fallen Women, where we raise funds (and G-strings) to keep the lights on and the glitter flowing. Along the way, we’ve battled Daleks, Darth Vader, The Borg, the ghost of Vincent Price, network censors, evil from other dimensions—and most recently, COVID-19.

No matter the foe, House Mother Cherry Pitz and her faithful consort Handsome Brad promise you laughs, tassels, and fabulous nerdy fun.
