Tease Time: A Modern Burlesque Show has found a new, bigger 4th Friday
home!

Tease Time was conceived in March 2009 and outgrew its previous club's
location. The new location is a 250 seated/standing combo venue,
that can absorb a crowd nicely, and with class!

With an ample back alley smoking patio some
might remember fondly together from Ohm days, there is room here for
the show and audience to stretch its wings. Whether you reserve a
booth
for friends with advanced tickets, or are a standing type, you will
love the atmosphere at the Whiskey Bar at 31 NW First Ave at Couch and
the Saturday Market Max Stop downtown.

with raffle swag by Serious Juggling, Lady Luck Tattoo, and Bart's
Barber Shop!

Frankie will have you singing " Show me the way to the next Whiskey
Bar, oh don't ask why, oh don't ask why! In fact be there for the
opening number with the entire cast and crew at 8pm!

Here are the lyrics!


"Alabama Song" by Bertolt Brecht
Show me the way to the next whisky bar
Oh, don't ask why, oh, don't ask why
Show me the way to the next whisky bar
Oh, don't ask why, oh, don't ask why
For if we don't find the next whisky bar
I tell you we must die
I tell you we must die
I tell you
I tell you
I tell you we must die

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say say good-bye
We've lost our good old mamma
And must have whisky
Oh, you know why.

Show me the way to the next pretty girl
Oh, don't ask why, oh, don't ask why
Show me the way to the next pretty girl
Oh don't ask why, oh, don't ask why
For if we don't find the next pretty girl
I tell you we must die
I tell you we must die
I tell you
I tell you
I tell you we must die

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say good-bye
We've lost our good old mamma
And must have a girl
Oh, you know why.

Show me the way to the next little dollar
Oh, don't ask why, oh, don't ask why
Show me the way to the next little dollar
Oh, don't ask why, oh, don't ask why
For if we don't find the next little dollar
I tell you we must die
I tell you we must die
I tell you
I tell you
I tell you we must die

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say good-bye
We've lost our good old mamma
And must have dollars
Oh, you know why.

Bertolt Brecht
