Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Host Professor Phelyx and a bevy of the beautiful ladies of Crème de Luxe brought back the classic art of burlesque at the Oriental Theater on May 28, with classy routines, Ziegfeld-worthy costumes, a live jazz band and a good helping of the old bump and grind. All photos by Ken Hamblin III. Now see the full Crème de Luxe slideshow.
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
