This year's Winter Burlesque show, dubbed Calendar Girl, is based on last summer's Fire Island Pines performance that was inspired by 1999’s Broadway Bares IX: Calendar Girl. The upcoming evening will be directed by Michael Lee Scott. Tony Award-winning director and choreographer Jerry Mitchell is executive producer and creator of Broadway Bares.
"More than two dozen of New York theatre's sexiest dancers will take the stage in a stimulating strip-a-month journey through the calendar," according to press notes. Show times are 8 PM and 10 PM.
The Bares season will also include Broadway Bares: Solo Strips in May 2014 and Broadway Bares 24 in June. Dates and other details about those shows will be announced next year.
Tickets, which start at $25, are available by visiting broadwaybares.com or broadwaycares.org/winterburlesque.
