You Gotta Have a Gimmick

gypsy rose lee.jpgDita Von Teese is performing for Cointreau tonight, but if you can't get into that party (at a tiny little Boite on the Lower East Side), take heed:


There's another burlesque act in town and it's open to all.

Lord & Taylor has imported the cast of Gypsy to their Manhattan store this Thursday at 6 for a little performance.

The party commemorates Lord & Taylor's recent revival of their coveted Rose symbol, and we suppose it's appropriate since Gypsy's having yet another revival on Broadway as well.

Still, we wonder exactly what kind of performance can happen in a public and family-friendly department store...

Especially since it won't be happening in their lingerie dressing rooms! Ah well.

I will add another tally to my "I wish I lived in NYC" board. Absolutely LOVE Gypsy. I saw it so many times in college because it was easy to get a guy to go with me. "Yeah, it's a musical, but it's about strippers!"

And the movie version w/ Bette Milder is PRICELESS. All-star cast!
