I have a friend (a much better friend now after this tip) over at LA Weekly, the local culture joint, who just sent me word on a piece they’ve done showcasing The Ladies of Sci-Fi Burlesque. The troupe does themed burlesque shows, and in this instance, they have performers who are doing their thing as characters from popular sci-fi flicks. This includes Pris from Blade Runner, Ripley from the Alien franchise, Maria from Metropolis, Aeon Flux, Barbarella and Metroid’s Samus Aran.
A selection of the pictures are below, and you can click on over to
LA Weekly for the rest of the 47 snaps. Some of them are most definitely NSFW. The ladies will be next performing as the Scream Queens Burlesque starting October 9th. I, uh…may have to get myself assigned to cover that… And I don’t even work for LA Weekly.
