Sexual Overtones and Apt613 present: A Valentine’s Afternoon Teas-er
A Time For Tease…A scrumptulescent Valentine’s afternoon of tea, good company and sexual satire.
The event takes place at 2pm, Sunday February 14 @ The Bronson Centre - Mac Hall (211 Bronson Ave).
Tickets are $20 or 2 for $35 and can be purchased in-person at CANTEEN (238 DALHOUSIE) or VENUS ENVY (320 LISGAR). The price of entry includes tea, scones and cupcakes (from Auntie Loos!) and your favourite Sexual Overtones performing some of our best numbers. Join us for a sophisticated, sexy and fun Valentine’s afternoon.
Everyone ages 19+ are welcome to attend. Proceeds from the show will be donated to Apartment613, an awesome volunteer run local city life website that believes that Ottawa’s staid and serious reputation may be nothing more than a convenient cover for its wild and crazy alter ego.
This is a photo-free event. Absolutely no photo taking will be tolerated. Stick to your memory, not your Facebook page!

This cold night in December will be hot and bothered when Tales from the Strypt brings a night of Burlesque & Vaudville in a celebration of all things freaky.
You’ll squeal with glee and fright when things go bump in the night.
The show will feature a number of special guests including a premier showing of Matt Ficner’s latest Creepy Puppet Project and once again, Montreal’s Dukes of Drag will also be joining the fun. To cap it all off, th performance will be followed by a dance party where audience and performers can bust their moves together. The evening promises to make the dark and cold feel hot and wicked, in the best kind of way.
Sexual Overtones prioritizes its performers’ safety and enjoyment. Audience members are expected to be respectful of performers by not taking photos or videos during the show. So leave your cameras at home, right next to your inhibitions. And while you are at it, you may as well leave your Sunday bust at home too and wear something strange. Prizes will be awarded for best costumes. “We dare to scare our pants off!” says troupe member, Zorba the Greek.
Everyone ages 19+ are welcome to attend. Proceeds from the show will be donated to Ecology Ottawa, a volunteer-driven, non-profit organization working to make Ottawa the green capital of Canada.
This is a photo-free event. Absolutely no photo tking will be tolerated. Stick to your memory, not your Facebook page!
Date: December 5th 2009. Doors open at 8:00 pm, close at 1:30 am.
Cost: $10 in advance, $15 at the door.
Advanced tickets are available at Venus Envy at 320 Lisgar Street [view map], Auntie Loo’s Treats at 507 Bronson Avenue [view map], and at Canteen art shop 238 Dalhousie [view map].

The first full-throttle show of Sexual Overtones madness was a wild success! The sold out show raised money for the Venus Envy Bursary Fund and got this city buzzing with naked hysterics and good not-so-clean fun in the name building a sexually diverse community.
Thanks to Rockalily for their opening acts, our volunteers, CKCU, CBC, and Apt613. Thanks as well to our sponsors and contributors: SteamWhistle Brewery, Auntie Lou’s Treats, PROMdemonium, and Venus Envy Ottawa.
