I am incredibly thrilled to be performing my Lyanna Stark fan theory act as part of Burlesque is Coming, a burlesque/sideshow/comedy tour produced by Blacklist Burlesque (Richmond, VA) and Glit-O-Rama Productions (Washington, DC).  The tour is a tribute to the Song of Ice and Fire series by George R.R. Martin.  For those of you who aren’t fantasy readers, it’s the series on which HBO’s hit show Game of Thrones is based.  We have been officially endorsed by George R.R. Martin, and our tour takes us all over the East Coast, down south, into the southwest to Mr. Martin’s theatre in Santa Fe, up through the Midwest, and back to Richmond, VA to close out the tour.  We’re making a documentary of our journey to Mr. Martin, and you can find out more about it and lend your support to our project at our IndieGoGo campaign, where all perks over $50 now come with our exclusive, not-available-in-stores, Game of Thrones and burlesque-themed Cards Against Humanity expansion pack: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/a-burlesque-journey-to-george-r-r-martin
