Join us Saturday March 30th, AKA International Table Top Day, for an afternoon of gaming and gaming themed burlesque from 4-8pm!

Hosted by ZP & Anja Keister, founders of D20 Burlesque, the party will be a mix of pre-planned one shot rpgs, card games and board games plus special burlesque performances from Stella Chuu and Anja Keister. All this in NYC’s nerdiest bar, The Way Station (683 Washington ave, Brooklyn, NY).

Please pay attention to our facebook event page  to find out about singups for specific games. You are also encouraged to bring your own favorite games and find an open play space.

This event is being held for free, but we ask that you patronize the bar and tip the dancers so that we can continue events like this in the future!  Remember, this event takes place in a bar, so the event is 21+

More Information about International Table Top Day:
On March 30th, 2013, premium YouTube channel Geek & Sundry (The Guild, TableTop, Written By A Kid) asks all of our fans to go to their friendly local game store, community center, or host an event at home and play more games. International TableTop Day is a reminder to spend more time and strengthen the bonds with the people who matter most, our friends and family, by playing games together. Tabletop gaming promotes many positive social and cognitive benefits like increased communication, team work, planning, and is an excellent stress relieving activity for all ages.

Do you love Batgirl, unicorns, or Cthulu? You won’t have to choose at the Dirty Nerdy Revue! NYC’s D20 Burlesque and Boston’s Rogue Burlesque are teaming up to bring wicked smart Boston locals and PAX East attendees a tailor-made striptease show and gaming event. Combining geek powers for good and for evil, D20 and Rogue will bring your favorite nerdy fantasies to life!

The evening will include burlesque performances from:
Anja Keister (NYC)
Iris Explosion (NYC)
Ludella Hahn (Boston)
Lilly Bordeaux (Boston)
Brandy Wine (Boston)

Along with audience games, super sweet prize raffles, and all this hot performer goodness, hold onto your dedicated pocket gaming device, ’cause Jared Sorenson, founder of Memento Mori Theatricks, will be running one of his Parsely games (chosen by the audience)!  The theatre has limited seating, so buy early to guarantee yourself a seat!

More information about the performers:

D20 Burlesque
Our Charisma is Matched only by our Dexterity
D20 Burlesque was founded by Anja Keister in the winter 2011 as a way for her to perform acts that were a little too obscure, specific, and geeky for normal burlesque shows. Starting with a theme based on the namesake for the group, D20 Burlesque had their first show on Friday March 25th based around roleplaying games. From there the group has tackled such topics as board games, H.P. Lovecraft, video games and even internet memes! D20 Burlesque has been on the following: Topless Robot, Kotaku, The Escapist Magazine, Wired magazine (on-line), Player Affinity, Re-Imagined Reality, Ology.com, the NY Times, Time Out NY and on College Humor’s Nerd Alert. Along with their monthly shows they have performed at DEX CON (NJ), Gen Con (IN), The Escapist Expo (NC) and more!

Rogue Burlesque
Boston’s Geekiest Burlesque Troupe – classic with a kick!
The Rogues have brought their brand of gorgeous, geeky burlesque to New England since 2009. The Independent Film Channel television series Young, Broke & Beautiful featured them as a quintessential Boston experience, right up there with the Sam Adams Brewery. In addition to a monthly residence at the Middlesex Lounge, the troupe has dazzled audiences at Oberon, Club Cafe, ImprovBoston, and private parties and events from Boston to New York City. In 2011, readers of The Boston Phoenix and The Weekly Dig nominated them for “Boston’s Best Burlesque Troupe,” and Citysearch calls them “one of Boston’s top burlesque troupes.” They are members of the Boston Circus Guild, the official stripteasers of the Boston Center for Adult Education, and the creators of the wildly popular Lucky 13 Amateur Burlesque Competition.

Memento Mori Theatricks
Memento Mori Theatricks is a game design studio focusing on offbeat and innovative games. It was one of the first companies on the “independent game” scene and helped to form the “New Style” of roleplaying games. MMT’s best known games include the Parsely series, Lacuna Part I and InSpectres (which inspired a feature film from Reactor 88 Studios). memento-mori.comTheir games have been run at GenCon (IN, CA), PAX (Prime and East), Fastaval (Denmark), and Dragonmeet (England)
