Featured Shows
License to Thrill: Mid Mod Mayhem!
(Denver)
July 11th, 2025
7:00pm
The Clocktower Cabaret, 1601 Arapahoe St, Denver, CO
Kerri N'Fuego presents an exhilarating vintage show that fuses the iconic mid-century modern sense of the 60s/70s with its modern personalities.

Seditious Saturday: Burlesque After Party
(Denver)
July 12th, 2025
9:30pm
Creepatorium, 1974 S Acoma St, Denver, CO
For hundreds of years art and gathering have been used to show our distrust in the government which is why this event centers around those things. Following our day of music, carnival games, and vendors come on inside for a late night after party featuring some seditious and sexy burlesque. Show at 9:30PM $20 for just burlesque. $10 for folks who buy tickets to the main event
Blassphemy: A Metal Go-Go Burlesque Show
(Denver)
July 12th, 2025
9:30pm
Lion's Lair, 2022 E Colfax Ave, Denver, CO
Alabastard Productions proudly presents Blassphemy, where sin, heavy music, and unholy debauchery collide! This isn’t your typical burlesque show... it's a metal-fueled, butt-shaking, boundary-breaking celebration that pushes our performers to unleash their inner sinner (or just inner headbanger). With extended stage time averaging 12-15 minutes per performance, each artist has the time to dig deep and really bring some nonsense to the stage, and into the crowd.

The Latest Featured Denver Burlesque Performer: Morningstar Darkling!
It's Denver's Demonic Darkling! Welcome to the stage... Morningstar Darkling!
Morningstar has evaded the authorities for centuries while they spend their years in the underworld as the head bitch of the dark magick supply chain. Although they love residing in Hell, they occasionally make appearances on Earth disguised as a burlesque performer. I believe it’s been about 200 years since Morningstar last performed on Earth, so you all are getting the performance of the century tonight. As a dear friend to Baphomet, Morningstar is here to remind us all that gender and sexuality are idiotic man made constructs. And they simply do not have time for such human stupidity. Please put some money in the air for a performer from another time and dimension, Denver’s Demonic Little Darkling, Morningstar!
Stay up to date with Morningstar on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Find all the links to upcoming shows, classes, their art, and other ways to support on their linktree!
