Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Dallas has a burlesque troupe for every personality. Ruby Revue serves up old time glam, Viva Burlesque caters dolled-up routines to themes and those Lolli Bombs like to get a little freaky. But what if you're into hot wax, barbed wire, machetes, broken glass and big top spectacle -- all emceed by Satan himself? Well then you're looking for Frausun's Deadly Sins Burlesque/Boylesque Sideshow.
The latest install happened on Saturday night at Wit's End, where Deadly Sins detonated in an explosion of leather, milk and more leather. (Somebody grab the Scotchgard.) Photographer Ed Steele ventured into the scene and caught the whole thing on film. This one gets a little raw -- as will happen when Satan hosts an evening of adult-only entertainment -- so we power-blushed and posted the tamer pictures on this blog. For the rest, visit our Observer slideshow.
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
