New York's 'Best Story Hour' (The Village Voice Best of NY 2010) - returns from an extra-long summer break for an extra-hot winter treat: their second annual reading of Charles Dickens' holiday classic A Christmas Carol. On Thursday, December 16 at 8:00pm host Nasty Canasta (declared by the New York Times to be 'perhaps the loveliest and certainly the nudest Scrooge in history') leads an all-star cast of exhibitionists in an in-the-buff reading of this special version of A Christmas Carol, just as Dickens himself originally performed it - although perhaps a bit more naked.

The origins of Sweet and Nasty Burlesque are shrouded in mystery, soaked in whiskey, and protected by several binding legal injunctions. Their grand experiment in striptease culminated in a weekly burlesque cavalcade of fantastic proportions that ran Sunday nights on East 11th Street from June 2006 until that venue's sudden destruction by hipsters in August, 2008. Now on Sunday, November 14th, Nasty Canasta - 'Brooklyn's greatest burlesque star' (The Brooklyn Paper) - brings her tassel-twirling minxes back to the Lower East Side for one night only at the Bowery Poetry Club.
