Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
On Friday, April 6, Viva Dallas performed a burlesque version of Alice in Wonderland. It featured the aerial acrobatics of Alley Oops and Fleur De Tease (imagine: "Alice" in a throat-clearingly perfect split a few feet above the stage). The show was one of many adventurous-themed productions this year, which include Cirque du Soleil, Cinco De Mayo, a tribute to Dick Clark at the Lakewood Theater.
The point: it was an adventurous year for burlesque in Dallas. So, let's take a trip through the year shall we? Our favorite burlesque shots from our indefatigable photographers of the year follow:

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.
