Pinchbottom is a theatrical burlesque company created by Jonny Porkpie and Nasty Canasta in 2004 and run by Porkpie since 2010.[1] It is known for its brand of "theater-burlesque fusion" [2] which presents "full-length comedic play[s] in which performers take their clothes off in every other scene.".[3]

Awards

The group was awarded the first-ever "Most Innovative" trophy for their performance at The Burlesque Hall of Fame in 2007,[4] and named the "Best Burlesque" in New York by New York Magazine in 2007.[5]
