The other night my friend Bruno went to one of NY's Danger Parties to take pictures of the burlesque show. The evening apparently began with few surprises. Half-naked ladies and a brass band in the midst of a room packed with people.
But, as with all great nights, the unexpected occurred...
About the image above Bruno writes:"Some jackass decided to mess with the lovely Lady Circus performers — a dangerous proposition for everyone involved, as the talented artists were spinning from a suspended hoop in a crowd full of people. Not to mention that this tool was vastly outnumbered, in class, strength and popularity.
Did he try to cop a feel? Did he smack someone? It wasn't clear, but he managed to ignite their considerable ire."
Things turned even uglier...
Bruno continues:
"The dazzling Lady Circus acrobatics became a whirlwind of pain for the rabblerouster's ill-conceived anger, as they unleashed blows like a burlesque tornado."
Burlesque tornado... HA! I love that image. I couldn't help but think of Mad Max as I thought of the scantily-clad ladies strung up on their hoop, throwing punches...
Sounds fun, yes? Wish you could have heard Bruno give his recount of the evening! Instead, I hope you'll make do with the rest of his pictures.
