* PEEP SHOW
Friday, 5 August

Half the proceeds will go to CSC;

Doors open at 7.
Go backstage at the pre-union Lusty Lady Theatre to hear the secrets of one Live Nude Girl who loved her job!

Carol Queen has performed "Peep Show" all over the US and Canada, but only once before in San Francisco. She'll be backed by the VJ stylings of the creative Vann Hall, who accompanied her in May when she performed "Peep Show" at the Roxie as part of the Sex Workers' Art and Video Festival.
