Many people come to Savannah wondering where "is it at?" You know.. what ELSE is there to do besides go downtown and become a drunken yah who. Theres plenty hiding underneath the glamour of being able to drink outside. For locals its a little easier to find then it is for an unsavvy tourists. Being pushed towards River Street and Paula Deens restaurant (thats why were flyering the hotels downtown) because, we know that the REAL REASON they came here was to see some utter and total weirdness, a drag queen and have an aburdly awesome time. Ladies and Gentlemen I bring you Naughty Nautical Nite.
Naughty Nautical Nite is almost upon us and the S.S. Fun Ship Cabaret will be docking at Tantra Lounge soon (September 23rd) in Savannah Ga. In-case you didn't know Naughty Nautical Nite was started in NYC by Dame Darcy and Jessica Delfino, and is the live action show that is put on by the EZ Bake Coven. The EZ Bake Coven is an artist collective with an art salon aspect to how it runs, and a sewing bee concept to arting in a group together.So when the idea came up to start a cabaret show,everyone decided to make it a nautical themed night that can adapt other themes within it as well. For instance one NNN was Alice in Wonderland themed and everything looked like Alice in Wonderland, except underwater. A cabaret show can include comedy, singing, dancing, theater, burlesque, performance art and of course don't forget a master of ceremony. When Darcy moved to Savannah she began looking for a way to start another Naughty Nautical Nite and another chapter of the EZ Bake Coven to go along with it. For the event planned to take place at Tantra its going to be just nautical themed to kick it off ,with plans to adapt a Halloween theme for the October show. Who knows what we're in-store for Darcy informed me that at one NNN in NYC, a girl did a burlesque routine dressed up as a sexy fetus.With a bubble surrounding her body and a cord from her belly button to the bubble acting as the umbilical cord, she stripped teased her way out. Listed below is the facebook invitation to the Savannah event. As well as a link to the facebook group. Stay tuned for a postings from these guys profiling a featured performer and info everyday leading up to the party. Also heres a blog update from Dame Darcy herself!

Yes, you heard it right folks, DD.com is going through a big re-Vamp (pun intended) which means, very soon, new and old graphic novels and comics will be available to download onto kindle etc. I am workin’ my little witchy fingers down to the skeleton bone to bring you more new spooky fairytales. Here is an example of a new one... Love Dame Darcy
The Salt Maiden
Lets turn back the clock to a time when clocks didn't exist. The earth was an orb as it is today, but it had no water, and the creatures that now live in the ocean were clearly visible squirming around in the mud, flapping their long slimy tentacles pointlessly in vain.
Above all this mess shone the beautiful face of The Moon. She looked down with interest, disgust and pity at the pathetic loathsome beasts below and slowly turned in her orbit. Currently she is made of moon dust and rock, but then she was an egg made from smooth white salt that had not solidified quite yet.
She rotated and as she did, thin strands of moonlight wafted down upon the earth and entangled it like spider webs. Months passed by and eventually the egg began to crack. It took time eternal as we perceive it, but to her it was but a few moments. From the crack slowly emerged a beautiful baby made entirely of salt. Her skin was white, smooth and luminous and her hair lay flat and still against her head for there was no breeze on the moon.
In contrast, her eyes were dark and as deep and black as the endless universe surrounding her. The tiny glints of starlight reflecting back the shine she saw. Her salt heart would beat, counting the passing of time and thus insisting her growth but she had no need for lungs on the moon's airless surface.
