swords, chords and belly dancers

The sword swallower goes to work. This wasn't all the man put down his esophagus.

An adult circus came to town Saturday, as the Yard Dogs Road Show mixed music and theater in a saucy revue at the Jackson Hole Playhouse.

Gypsy burlesque drew nearly a full house. All weekend, from the Whodunit? show at the Art Association to the Pangea video campfire at LMC gallery, found people thirsting for art in all its forms. Mountain dwellers are restless for spring, even if Mother Nature is not.

The Road Show’s vaudeville was perfectly tailored for the Playhouse, a fantastical theater straight out of the Old West. Here is a slide show from the performance.

Belly dancers line up and shake it. Open wide and say 'ahh.' Confetti rains down on the troupe inside the Jackson Hole Playhouse.

The Western circus-like performance combined music with theater, and the Playhouse was the perfect venue. Gypsy burlesque was a turn-on for many in the crowd.
