 SYRENS OF THE SOUTH PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS THE SOUTHERN EXPOSURE TOUR Who: Syrens of the South Productions www.syrensofthesouth.com What: The Southern Exposure Tour When: Wed, April 27, 2011 Doors at 8pm, Show at 9pm Tickets: Tickets are $5 at the door (Cash Only) Where: The Shelter 2101 Tula St Atlanta, GA 30309 www.theshelteratl.com Body Text: Syrens of the South is at it again with bringing you the most amazing performers from all over the world to Atlanta, GA! This time we're pleased to team up with New York's Bunny Love and RunAround Sue as part of their Southern Exposure Tour! International performers and burlesque darlings of NYC, Bunny Love and RunAround Sue are missing their southern roots. With a few costumes, a handful of pasties, a bit of glitter, two guitars and a uke these two burlqy babes are hitting the road and joining forces with the Souths' most sizzling shows to spread the burlesque love. Bunny Love grew up in the sultry city of New Orleans with bourbon in her baby bottle and bump n' grind music in her head. As a young girl she heard the call of the stage and she answered, making her way to New York City to study theater and dance. In New York she experienced the gambit from classical theater to the avant garde, until finally discovering that what she really likes best is creating her own works for theater, film and nightclubs. (www.bunnyloveburlesque.com) Often called "The Moving Violation" and "The Make it Happen Girl", RunAround Sue currently produces and performs regularly in NYC, Brooklyn, Massachusetts, Virginia, and Washington DC. She has had the honor of performing at the New York Burlesque Festival, Slipper Room, Starshine Burlesque, Sweet and Nasty Burlesque, and many other enchanting venues on both coasts and on both sides of the Mason Dixon line.
