a humorous and provocative stage show featuring slapstick humor, comic skits, bawdy songs, striptease acts, and a scantily clad female chorus.

I think I am going to a burlesque show tonight for Ellena's birthday. When she told me that's what she wanted to do I said "cool! Do we get to dress up?!" Unfortunately however, this is not the sort of burlesque show that audience members get to participate in. We just get to be tricked into drinking a lot of expensive beer! Yea!
