As most of you living in Dallas know, 4 businesses in our beloved lower Greenville were destroyed by fires early Tuesday morning. If you hadn’t heard about this tragedy that destroyed Terilli’s, Micks, Hurricane Grill, and Greenville Bar & Grill please check it out here.
This Saturday, March 6th, Broads & Panties has joined together with Jessie from 102.1 The Edge and local businesses and artists to support those affected by the lower Greenville fires. Originally, Broads & Panties Burlesque-A-Billy was to be a rockabilly burlesque show featuring the talents of local performers, including Courtney Crave as the headliner. Broads & Panties is the second production birthed from the brain of talented Dallas performer Vivienne Vermuth. Now, thanks to so many people in the community coming together, this has turned into a huge burlesque event and benefit raffle.
First, let’s talk about the show. Broads & Panties Burlesque-A-Billy is an all rockabilly burlesque revue featuring local performers such as Scarlet Switches, Scarlet Rose Royale, Zamra, Vinny Velour, Cora Coquette, Bubbles Von BonBon, Alystre McQueen, Syntactic, Sin O'Rita, Pixie O'Kneel, and Vic Handsome. Please go to the Trees Dallas website to get your tickets for this one of a kind show. There’s going to be singing, there’s going to be hot chicks taking their clothes off, there’s going to be fantastic music. And there’s going to be an awesome raffle.
After the fires on Tuesday a number of people decided that we needed to do something. 100% of the proceeds from the raffle being held at Broads & Panties are going to help those businesses affected by the fire. So the more of you who come out and buy raffle tickets, the more we have to give to those who need it! Here are some of the amazing things you can win in the raffle:
