An 18+ exotic cabaret by House of Trixie Blue that reimagines Slipknot's anthems with burlesque, cabaret and pole dance.
Stripknot bring their Be Prepared for Hell show to Southside on Saturday 24 October, an exotic cabaret by House of Trixie Blue that reimagines Slipknot's anthems with burlesque and pole dance. It's a strange pairing on paper — nu-metal and cabaret — but that's exactly the point. The show takes the rage and intensity of Slipknot and distils it into a performance that fuses metal with sensuality, blending burlesque, cabaret and pole dance into what the producers describe as an 'unholy hymn to liberation and defiance'.
The whole thing is set to a thunderous Slipknot soundtrack and staged as a visual feast that they describe as equal parts dangerous and hypnotic. The Stripknot: Myiasis troupe carries the night with group and solo numbers, and there are special guests on the bill as well. It's an 18+ show with adult themes, so keep that in mind if you're thinking of bringing anyone younger.
There's a dress code to lean into, too: Nu-Metal Mosher, Emo or Gothic Princess. If you've still got your old baggy trousers or a lace bodice in the wardrobe, this is a good excuse to dust them off. Southside is on Colegrave Street, just near Lincoln's South Common, so it's an easy spot to get to.
