Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
The Texas Theater in Oak Cliff hosted the Second Annual Dallas Burlesque Festival on Friday and Saturday night, Feb. 5-6. The temperature outside may have dipped into the 40s, but the air in Texas Theater grew thick and sultry as burlesque dancers enslaved their audience. While the production was not without a few technical issues, the audience roared and lauded performers in an evening of lace, plumage and fantasy.

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.
