I'm looking for both men and women (18+ only please) willing to do a stiptease, song and dance act, comedy, or other vaudville-esque stuff. I will be looking for more strip teases than other stuff so please don't get offended if I turn your tap number away.
What's in it for you? We're shooting for a 2 hr 'panel' so you'd get a refund on your admission (see the panel page of
www.animenext.org for details). I'm also going to try to set up a contest for best acts chosen by the audience or a panel of judges. (I'm still fleshing this out) If you are part of a professional troupe, you're free to hand out fliers for upcoming events.
Details are still coming in but I know it will be a late night panel Friday or Saturday night after the concert/masquerade). I'll post info as I get it.
Here are my ground rules (Which I reserve the right to change at any time, thank you very much):
1. This should go without saying but you need to have a badge. You can get your refund after the panel as per the cons rules.
2.
Must be at least 18 yrs old. You will have to send me proof when signing up and will have to bring proof to the show. A driver's license is fine.
3. Act must be Anime related. (See rules for the masquerade, but I might bend for good ideas.)
4.
Acts must be 'R' rated. For strip teases, you may only strip to bra, panties, thongs, or pasties as a minimum. A thong or underware is ok for guys (yay banana hammock!) but lets try to avoid the tighty whities ok guys? 'The Aristocrats' level humor is fine. Costume/act will have to be approved before the show.
5. Acts must be upbeat and sexy! We want the audience cheering, laughing, and having a good time so leave the emo at home k?
6. Shoot for 3 mins or less but I'll be flexible if the act sounds really good.
7. Please choose an adult-ish character. I can't approve a Card Captor Sakura or Sailor Chibi Moon striptease without feeling dirty. Sailor Moon or Utena are do-able.
8. A character may only appear once, so choose you character early!
9. I prefer cosplayers to be the same sex as their character. No Yaoi allowed and yaoi paddles will be shoved sideways somewhere.
10. I'd prefer the act to include a recognizable outfit, but if you aren't good at putting costumes together we can discuss alternatives. In the same vein, feel free to jazz up a costume with beads, feathers, sequins, fringe, etc.
11. Please keep in character for your act (i.e. don't take off your wig/makeup til you are out of site of the audience) We want to give the illusion that it is the actual character performing.
If you are interested reply here or email me at snuzzlebunnies at yahoo.com (put AnimeNEXT Burlesque in the subject) and I'll put you down for your act/character. I'll need your name, stage name (what you'll be billed as), character (with series), act type, and song (if necessary). Once I have you down I'll contact you for proof of age and later for a glimpse of your costume/act.
If you have no interest but can think of nifty acts feel free to list them here for people to pick thru. Here are some ideas to get you started:
Temari (Naruto) doing a fan dance
Yuuko (xxxholic) doing a drunken striptease.
Rei (Eva) performing to Sinatra's 'Fly me to the moon'
