Strip performers star in Cirque dancer’s show
Thursday, June 25, 2009 | 2 a.m.
Prostitution as Art
Cirque performer Wassa Coulibaly spent her spare time writing and co-directing The Art of Prostitution, a show that ran at the Onyx Theater. The cast included several other Cirque Du Soleil Performers, as well as dancing, percussion, and a story that takes a new angle on prostitution.
The oldest profession is once again being redefined, thanks to “Zumanity” co-star Wassa Coulibaly’s sexy-yet-playful play-in-progress, “The Art of Prostitution.”
The hour-long production has been tweaked and retweaked several times now but Coulibaly and her cast of Strip show entertainers, including performers from “Ka,” “O,” “Zumanity,” “Believe,” and “Le Rêve,” are back once again to allure and arouse late-night audiences
The scantily clad cast will take to the Onyx Theater’s stage at 1 a.m. early June 30th to tempt, tease and perhaps teach ticketholders a thing or two about buying, selling and sharing love.
Through its numerous incarnations, “The Art of Prostitution” has consistently sold out and tickets for the upcoming single-night showing of the latest version are limited (the venue seats just 96 people, after all). Still, advance passes are available online and at the Rack for $20.
Otherwise, those interested can join the crowd and stand in line outside the Sahara Avenue sex shop on Monday and hope for the best.
