Strut strides into Newport

Prepare to have your bells jingled as Strut Cabaret brings a very merry dose of season's teasin's to the annual Holiday Burlesque Show at Newport’s Primaltones Community Venue this Saturday, Dec. 20.

Expect a playful, cheeky spin on holiday classics during the evening of red-hot seasonal mischief and live cabaret entertainment.

Strut Cabaret, based in Bend, is a collaborative group of five performers with varied stage backgrounds, blending dance, burlesque and character-driven acts with a touch of sass and a whole lot of polish. The cast includes Bougie Von Bacon, Charlotta Love, Miss Darling Divine, Lil Leazy and Ms Milli Martini, bringing a mix of glamour, humor and high-energy performance to the Primaltones stage.

The evening will be hosted by Newport’s own “Bad Santa,” Molotov, keeping the crowd engaged between acts with tongue-in-cheek banter and holiday mischief.

This annual event typically sells out, so advance ticket purchase is strongly recommended.

Saturday’s Holiday Burlesque Show begins at 8:30 pm at Primaltones Community Venue, located at 2925 SE Ferry Slip Road in Newport. General admission is $35 and VIP tickets are $45. For more information, go to primaltones.com.
