Back by popular demand, and for the first time in the series’ more than two year history, producer Liberty Rose and her band of incredible performers will present a one-time encore presentation of this February’s blockbuster show, Hayao Miyzaki Burlesque!

This must-see show features inventive tributes to Miyzaki’s impressive works, from the classic “Nausicäa of the Valley of the Wind” (1984), to the whimsical “My Neighbor Totoro” (1988) and more recent nautical favorite, “Ponyo” (2008) – and many more surprises along the way.

AT A GLANCE:

February 21, 2015: the first installment of Miss Rose’s Sexploitation Follies’ 2015 season. An evening of whimsical wonder, burlesque and puppetry awaits you at Hayao Miyazaki Burlesque!

Founded in the filmtastic city of Philadelphia and held on the third Saturday of every other month at PhilaMOCA, the Sexploitation Follies is an evening of burlesque homage to a different director each month!
