Date: Friday, May 8, 2026, 7:00 p.m. (doors 6:00 p.m.) Location: 29th Street Ballroom, 2906 Fruth St., Austin, TX 78705 Name: The Jigglewatts Burlesque: Surreal Masquerade Cost: $30 - $150 Ticket Link: https://SurrealMasquerade.eventbrite.com Facebook Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/909993721858204 The Jigglewatts Burlesque Revue invites you to surrender to the exquisite unknown at The Jigglewatts Burlesque: Surreal Masquerade, an opulent evening of burlesque and dreamlike spectacle at 7:00 p.m. (doors at 6:00 p.m.) Friday, May 8 at The 29th Street Ballroom, 2906 Fruth St. in Austin, Texas. For one dazzling night only, guests 21+ are summoned into a world of masked splendor, art and illusion, as fantasy flickers at the edge of a dream. “Eye-popping glamour… a burlesque troupe with a racy show that’s not to be missed,” writes Stephen Moser of The Austin Chronicle. Surreal Masquerade imagines the masquerade ball anew: as a living work of art — sensual, sculptural, and thrillingly untamed. In this fever dream of metamorphosis and desire, aristocrats and apparitions mingle as strange muses and dazzling creatures drift through the shadows. The effect is lavish and disorienting in the most delicious way. Guests are invited to arrive as their most dazzling fiction: masked, adorned, and transformed in metallics, dramatic silhouettes, celestial flourishes, and all the fabulous details your otherworldly alter ego desires. Become feral, divine, or entirely invented. At Surreal Masquerade, the audience is not merely a witness, but part of the fantasy itself. The cast stars Jigglewatts Ruby Joule, Something Blue, Ruby Lamb and Selma Bawdy, joined by special guests Raven Rose (AR), Devin Alfather and Hibiscus Bloom! “Austin’s finest burlesque sensations.” — Alamo Drafthouse Cinema The Jigglewatts’ ongoing residency at 29th Street Ballroom features live music, comedy, drag, variety, and world-class burlesque performances in a lush cabaret setting. The Jigglewatts Burlesque is a perfect match for this jewel-box space where floor to ceiling velvet curtains and an artfully appointed stage add to the immersive experience. With the longest continuously running burlesque show in the U.S.A., The Jigglewatts are a slice of classic weird Austin. Friday, May 8, 7:00 pm (6:00 pm doors) Tickets: $30 - $150 Official Eventbrite ticket link: https://SurrealMasquerade.eventbrite.com
