"Livin On A Burlesque Prayer"

Now that Jesus-season is over, those seeking something to believe in can look to Corio for a weekly refue far more thrilling than mass. In This Is Burlesque, downtown savior Murray Hill takes the stage in an effort to eradicate the velvit ropes of New York and offer full-on nightlife salvation. She can't walk on water (we think), but four-inch heels have never been a problem: Coney Island bombshell Angie Pontani co-hosts the tassel-fest, in which Peekaboo Pointe, Melody Sweets, and the tap-dancing Helen Pontani perform. But here's where the show truly beats church: The devine drinks-that is shots-flow freely from the onstage bar during intermission.
