Don't Forget....Naughty Nautical Night #2

Naughty Nautical Night #2

Thursday, April 3rd



An ocean-themed cabaret and dance party, hosted by the

delectable Victorian witch comic book illustrator Dame Darcy and

America 's first lady of dirty folk ditties, Ms.

Jessica Delfino.



This show features a variety of weird performances by

Dame Darcy, Jessica Delfino, Magin Schantz, uke-ist of the high

seas Ben Lerman, electronic beach jamzz by Adira

Amram, hot sailors, a vast assortment of sexy mermaid

babes including burlesque featuring Victoria Kuper and

friends, Margot Leitman enlightens us with a tale of

the briny sea, belly dancing babes, Diane O'Debra will

jolly roger the place up, house band Anchor Panky

rocks the boat, DJ Kai keeps the tide high, fun

surprises and treats for best sea-themed costumes (so

come all dolled up pirate / sailor / sea-theme style)

a board walk carnival where wares shall be hocked,

really strange ocean themed drinks, damn, even puppets

by Jared Whitcomb. It's like a children's show on

acid, and not that junky acid that hurts your back,

the real good shit that is so fresh and clean and when

you wake up the next morning, it's like it was all a

dream.



On the last episode of NNN, Dame Darcy was being

played by a very sexy male impostor who pretended to

be her. Darcy was helpless to attend because she was

under a spell cast on her by an evil demon known only

as "the city of LA. " But the sea witch hag broke the

spell and now Darcy is back, for reals, to co-host NNN

with zest and glee! We've got some real treats planned

for ya, so don't be all, yeah! And then be all,

whatever!
