The burlesque production company Syrens of the South is extremely excited to debut their late night show, full of punch, variety and a healthy helping of tease, which promises to be a frothy, fun and an eye opening experience! They will be debuting their debauchery and fun-filled frolics on the Actor’s Express Late Night Show on May 30, in a show described by Debbie Michaud of Creative Loafing as “the show (that) goes from boisterous to sultry to bawdy and does it all with a wink and a smile.” Also touted as “Very well put together” by Sharon Osborn, this production is sure to titillate and fascinate even the most discerning Danny, because there’s a little bit of something for every palate. The two creators of the whole kit-and-Kaboodle are Katherine Lashe and Talloolah Love. August marks the Devilish Duo’s two year anniversary, and each show since has been a raving success. Playing to sold out rooms all over the south east, New York, LA and Boston, just to name a few, the Syrens know how to put together an amazing lineup of the finest burlesque, vaudeville, song, dance, juggling, and sideshow acts anyone can ask for.
