Jamie and Daniel TAKE IT OFF

Burlesque mixes things up by holding the reading in the bar. Variety is the spice of life.


Lolita tends bar


Jamie Gaughran-Perez and his robot friend, Jon Lee


Jamie opens his package -- naughty naughty naughty!!! -- but what's inside?


The audience recoils in fear of what may be unleased --


-- CROTCH SOCKS!!! Gilda makes a new puppet friend -- and Jamie earn $10 on the auction block


Another satisfied Burlesque audience winner


Daniel Nester plays it coy


and teases the audience with more trouser sock mayhem


but in the end he sheds his shirt


for $40 -- close to beating the Burlesque record, but for now Kim Addonizio remains Burlesque Queen -- sorry Dan, you'll have to settle for "King"


Another memorable Burlesque audience
