We care about our fellow performers and friends and want to make sure you are receiving the payment you deserve for the work you create. In order for us to help maintain this ideal, we are launching a fundraising campaign to enable our desire to offer high guaranteed pay. We offer incentives from personalized postcards and panties to VIP tickets and Game of Thrones memorabilia signed by the author George R.R. Martin himself!

FAUXDUST is pleased to announce that they will be co-producing their inaugural poptacular Stark Naked: A Nerdlesque Tribute to A Game of Thrones with the wonderful Theatre Off Jackson on July 13th and 14th, 2012.

Theatre Off Jackson has been an incredible supporter of the burlesque and performance communities for many-a-year and we are so privileged to have the opportunity to work with them. For more information on the awesome-ness that is TOJ, please visit their website here.

With the announcement of our production dates, we also published a call for performers on our Facebook page (which we encourage you to follow here!) We're searching for performers of all different varieties. We want strippers, aerialists, fire performers, tumblers, jugglers, and actors! Have a skill, we didn't just list? Submit an act. We are also encouraging performers from our neighboring cities of Portland and Olympia to submit acts. Our hope is to manifest some artistic cross-pollination with dreams of future collaboration! Please take a look at the full call for performers for a complete overview of act specifications and Stark Naked's performer requirements. The nerdier the better! Geeklust forever!
