New York's neoburlesque Wau Wau Sisters hit Maui

Advertiser Staff

 

New York's Wau Wau Sisters perform their brand of 21st-century burlesque in Kahului on Oct. 13.

Part of New York City's post-modern burlesque scene, the bawdy Wau Wau Sisters perform at the McCoy Studio Theater at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center in Kahului.

In high heels, the cocktail-clutching Wau Wau Sisters sing dirty songs and sling double entendres — and also perform irreverent circus routines.

The New York Times called the duo "Irreverent, sacrilegious, foul-mouthed and uninhibited." And they like their audience uninhibited too — there are audience participation costume changes.

The Wau Wau Sisters appeared in the recent film "Short Bus," and have been seen on "The Isaac Mizrahi Show," "The Sharon Osborn Show" and Jimmy Kimmel Live.
