Art in Heat...

...is the name of a new show opening Saturday at the Warehouse Gallery, as an unofficial kick-off to this year's Capital Fringe Fest.

Get it?!? Art in Heat??? 'Cause it's HOT out?


Be sure to check out stuff by my friend Chris Bishop. He da man.

By the way - seeing the Lobster Boy Revue in the lineup reminds me that a friend of mine swears there's a burlesque subculture here in DC. I'm intrigued. Is this true, and is burlesque "on the rise" in other cities, too? Do tell.
