Going...Going...Gone...the Glitter Edition!
Angel Burlesque and Two First Name Productions team up to present a very special adults only version of Going, Going, Gone...the Glitter Edition!
What is "Going...Going...Gone"? The brainchild of Lou Harry and John Thomas, GGG was a hit at IndyFringe 2012 and has enjoyed great success since. This is a live AUCTION comedy in which the audience does our bidding.
It’s the final night at Ed’s Auction House. Ed’s dead, and three people face the task of selling off his last worldly possessions. What can they do but auction the items off to the audience? In an added glittery twist, Ed's Auction House itself has been sold to become the new home of Angel Burlesque.
And what can the audience do but become a part of the show by bidding on the items with the play money they’ve been given as they enter the theater? And what can the Angels do but rehearse their burlesque routines?
The action unfolds as the actors learn along with the audience what items must be auctioned off – and create the stories behind those items. The best part? Audience members who place winning bids take their purchases home.

Choices
Tonight I was involved in a really disappointing conversation. An artist who had been tattooing my left arm posted the below status. There are many, many things wrong with this conversation. I am horrified that at the time that I unfriended the artist, 19 people had liked this statement. As many of you know, I am an ally. I have been an ally since I was born. I am also a pro choice, spiritual, divorced woman who is in a loving live in relationship with an amazing man who was born in Chile and moved to this country over 30 years ago. I also have many amazing friends who have different types of relationships than what I am in. I believe that everyone is entitled to the same rights. Period. This doesn't just include sexuality but it also covers race, gender, age, religion, disabilities, size, height, etc. No matter what we all deserve to be able to have the same liberties as our fellow people. Previous to this post, David and I have had a few conversations that I have enjoyed while he was working on my arm. When I read this post for the first time, I was shocked and disgusted. Those feelings only got more intense as interracial relationships and other subjects were brought up. Rage is the word that could best describe my emotion. I wanted to scream, I wanted to name call, my anger was almost not controlled, but then I realized I can only control my feelings and what I know in my heart is right. I am not going to stoop to that level. If these people choose to say and feel these things, that's on them. It's a total disgusting shame but it is what it is. It's a sad situation. He mentions my confusion in his replies to me. I am far from confused on this matter nor what my circle of control is. What do I have control over? My emotions, my actions and my spending power. I have made a stand in the past to not support any company, business or establishment that practices in discrimination and this will continue on. I don't wish David or any of these people ill will or anything but the best. I wish clarity for them to open up their minds and their hearts from the misguided hate they have. I however will not be giving this man any money nor to any one else who makes statements like this below. I choose to not support hate and I will buy that way as well.

Marriage is NOT a right granted by the state.Marriage is a religious ceremony uniting one man to one woman in "holy" matrimony.Why do you think they call it "holy" matrimony? It's religious! God commanded to keep marriage sacred and holy and between one man and one woman. The state only got their greedy little paws in on it so that they could make money off of selling marriage licenses because they honed in on it as a financial angle by insisting that people must have blood tests and a marriage license so that the state can rip you off and raise revenues for fat asshole politicians to pocket. If gay ppl wanna be together, so be it but "marriage" is the sacred unity between a man & a woman. This is just as offensive to those of us that still put emphasis on morality as it supposedly is to the gay community not to be allowed to partake in this specific union. This is NOT a discriminatory issue, its a common sense issue.

My first Nuvo write up! An Evening of Beastie Boys Burlesque
http://www.nuvo.net/indianapolis/beastie-boys-burlesque-breast-cancer/Content?oid=2535574#.USKb5x1YYl8
Saturday, January 26, 2013
I do matter and I am who I am.
I learned a big time lesson last night. Sometimes I get so overwhelmed with anxiety trying to impress people in the scene. I let it get to me in till the point that it hurts my performance with stage fright. Why doesn't this person like me? What happens if I don't do a good job in front of them? If they don't like my dancing, my concept, my costume, my quirkiness, my body type, my level of "sexy"?
Last night I did a number that was fun and pretty while donning a unibrow. I selected a song that made me happy and I danced like I have never danced before. I relaxed before the show and I didn't get self consumed with the thought of what people would think when they saw the pictures or if they happened to be in the audience. The audience loved the number and I did too. And that-that is what matters most. My feelings and the people paying for their ticket to watch the show. These people who I hear tell who the best is, who the really sexy ones are, who the most talented are-well they aren't my audience. There is no winning over the people who are so self involved in themselves, that I will never be on their radar. They are always going to motivated in their agenda and I am simply not invited in their eyes to be on their road map to the top. There is no winning burlesque. There is no being the best "it" girl. But there is being the best Pepper that I can be. Who is Pepper? Well Pepper is the bouncy,happy performer who gets too excited, is delightfully awkward with a plus sized body that likes shiny things, big lashes and will probably never be one of the cool kids. Finally, that is ok with me.

An Evening of Beastie Boys Burlesque, a fundraiser for Making Strides of the American Cancer Society
Hello,
My name is Pepper Mills and I am a local burlesque performer and producer. I am producing “An Evening of Beastie Boys Burlesque" at the White Rabbit Cabaret on February 16, 2013. This event will be a fundraiser for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer of the American Cancer Society.
My name is Pepper Mills and I am a local burlesque performer and producer. I am producing “An Evening of Beastie Boys Burlesque" at the White Rabbit Cabaret on February 16, 2013. This event will be a fundraiser for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer of the American Cancer Society.
Why is this fundraiser so important to me? On July 9, 2011, I lost my father after a two year battle with cancer. When I was growing up, a love of music was shared between my father and me. I have many fond me memories of us enjoying many groups, including the Beastie Boys. When MCA of the Beastie Boys passed earlier this year after his own battle of cancer, it really hit home with my personal loss. I decided to hold this event in honor of my father in hopes that someone who is currently fighting their own battle will continue to receive any assistance that they need to beat this horrible disease.
This is the first event of the breast cancer fundraising season in addition to being the first burlesque event fully backed by the American Cancer Society. Please consider helping us make history.
My team of volunteers and I will be hosting a silent auction during this event and we are currently excepting donations. All companies providing donations will be listed as a sponsor during the event and in social media marketing program. Our wish list would include products that we could package in a basket, services (spa, hair, tanning, massage, etc) and special event parties (wine tastings, dinners, etc).
What does Making Strides do?
One in every two women newly diagnosed with breast cancer reaches out to the American Cancer Society for help and support. We are in every community providing free information and services when and where people need it. If you need someone to talk with at 3 a.m. (or any other time of the day or night), we’re here. If your friend is losing her hair because of chemo, your mother needs a ride to treatment, or if a loved one needs a place to stay while in treatment away from home, we are the ones who can help.
·Workshops that teach beauty techniques to female cancer patients to help deal with appearance-related side effects of cancer treatment.
·Plus, information from a trained Cancer Information Specialist is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by calling1-800-227-2345.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
