Drop everything & come!
The Chicago Poetry Brothel Explores the Seamy Side of Poetry.
Come for the most enjoyment you ever had in a bordello! A stage show
of enough splendor to match the startling grandeur of the Foundation Room itself—
floods of love-lorn poetry whores, whiskey, vaudeville, dancers, fortune tellers—
Pinch and Squeal out of Cleveland, OH & Chicago's darling Lula Houp-Garou!
Doors open at 8pm. $5 if dressed Victorian $10 if not. (21 and over event)
