This Weekend in Asheville

ST. PATTY’S DAY SHOW AT THE GREY EAGLE FEATURING THE REBELLES AND THE FERAL CHIHUAHUAS

Carnival- a Cabaret style show at The Grey Eagle

From the Press Release:

"You are invited to join The Rebelles, The Pheromones and The Feral Chihuhuas as they join forces for an evening of comedy, carnality and camaraderie. Tickets $15 , $18 at the door. Tickets are available at thegreyeagle.com or at the venue. Seating is limited and is general admission. Show starts promptly at 9pm.

Carnival , a peep show, freak show is a tribute to classic burlesque with a modern twist- an Irish twist. Asheville’s premier sketch comedy group The Feral Chihuhuas will commence MCing and overall roasting with original sketches. For one evening the Rebelles and the Feral Chihuahuas will bring sexy back to the Grey Eagle.

The Feral Chihuahuas are a sketch comedy troupe committed to providing all original material that delivers a unique viewing experience. Often bringing fresh humor from common situations, they also delve into absurdism, existentialism, and draw a lot of their humor from political and social commentary. The Feral Chihuahuas are certainly a different breed, and their mission is to be brave, smart, edgy, and most of all, funny.

The Rebelles are burlesque, guerilla theatre women’s collective and performance art. They always enjoy taking the traditional conception of burlesque as social commentary with a comedic twist and using it to tease-and-free the audience. The Rebelles aim to lift sprits and lower inhibitions.

Don’t miss out. See you at the show"

How is it that a burlesque show is advertised "all ages"?
