  • 7PM DINNER SHOW - Filthy Lucre Burlesque Club

    $24.00 - $38.00 per person

    Prepaid

    Dec 4, 2024 - Dec 22, 2024
    (A TAKEOVER OF THE SHOWPALACE - THIS IS A BURLESQUE SHOW - NOT A DRAG SHOW) Charles Dickens immortal classic drops its knickers and gets down to business in FILTHY LUCRE: A Burlesque Christmas Carol. Welcome to The Filthy Lucre, where the cover charge is exorbitant, the drinks are watered down, and management steals the performers' tips. What sort of miser would would run a Club like this? Who else but Scrooge? A stripteasing twist on Dickens' classic holiday tale, when the scantily-clad spirit of her former business partner returns from the grave, the "nudest Scrooge in history" and goes on a tassel-twirling journey with the Ghosts of Burlesque Past, Present, and Future. You know the story, but never seen it quite like this.

    Going to Lips is such a good time, a must go anytime you are in NYC with friends or adult family. A perfect place to celebrate birthdays or any special occasion. The performers are amazing, energetic, funny, and personable. The singing, dancing, and comedy routines all exude energy and fun. The food service is great too. Standard American cuisine done right, fast, and accurate. The evening dinner/performance packages include a 3 course meal. The special themed drinks are very good and they also have a full bar. Don't forget to bring cash to tip the performers, they will make change before the entertainment starts. Lips, thank you for a wonderful time!!!

    Had a great night here with my girlies. Dinner was good, I would say regular type of bar/restaurant food, if you are wondering. The queens were talented, fabulous and funny. Place is cozy and cute, very festive. Drinks were okay, didn’t get to try a signature one, my fault. Overall it was a fun night and a happy experience. Thank you! Xo

    You can feel the positive high energy the minute you walk in. Loved the way we were treated starting with the host at the door, very attentive, personal and all smiles. I think the high tables were the best sit in the house for a private time. The staff were all dressed up beautifully, the bar keepers were absolutely outstanding. Great drinks and food. We ordered a big sampler and was delicious. Sofia, our server was so beautiful and attentive. My husband and I had a great time and definitely we will go back next time we vist NYC. Great show applause, applause
