My amazingly talented and fiercely brilliant goddess burlesque teacher, Howlin' Vic (or Victoria Libertore), has been working overtime on her latest production, Girl Meat, which is hitting the stage April 23-25!
Check out the creepy promo video here (yikes).
As a solo performer, Vic tells the story of Countess Elizabeth Bathory, the most prolific female serial killer in history. Drinking and bathing in the blood of her victims, she tortured and killed hundreds of women. Intrigued by this true story, she created this performance piece channeling Bathory's essence with "intensity, a dose of insanity and a hint of camp." In the midst of the narrative, she explores why as a society we find naked, twisted-up, bloodied bodies of women so damn fascinating. The show is directed by Rosalie Purvis, dramaturgy is by Jen-Scott Mobley, Ph.D., set design by Jono Lukas, costume design by Jeff Sturdivant and lighting by Justin Sturges.
Showtimes: Friday, April 23rd & Saturday, April 24th at 8:00 p.m. and Sunday, April 25th at 6:00 p.m.
Location: Brooklyn Arts Exchange
421 Fifth Avenue, Park Slope (btn 7th & 8th St.)
