Hello everyone!
So, I have been doing a lot of different events recently.
Strip Spelling Bee.
Slowdance Night.
Crowd Karaoke.
And other crazier things, like Cardboard Fort Night.
But having all these various blogs to cater to each particular
event is kinda insane.
So this will be the last posting here.
If you want to keep up with all my future events,
you can do one of two things!
Visit http://janesheisaclerk.blogspot.com/ monthly.
Or, "LIKE" my event Facebook group, Chat Perdu Productions.
Thank you all for visiting and for coming!

Queer Pride STRIP SPELLING BEE - June 24th, 2011
STRIP SPELLING BEE in TORONTO, ONTARIO!
Toronto Queer Pride Edition
The game is played a lot like strip poker, but it's a spelling bee, and it's played in front of a live audience of hooters, hollerers and hecklers who want to see some smart and sexy skin!
......
Friday, June 24th, 2011
Buddies in Bad Times Theatre
12 Alexander Street
(1 blk east of Yonge)
Toronto, Ontario
Sign-up at 10 PM sharp!
Bee starts at 10:30 PM
$10 at the door
19+
Please note that we must cap our number of strip-spellers at 15 to ensure an expedient and entertaining evening.
**************************
OFFICIAL RULES:
One by one, participants are asked to spell a word. If they get it right, they sit down. If they get it wrong, they must striptease A THIRD of their clothing off, and that is considered their first "strike". When they misspell a second word, that is their second strike and they must striptease ANOTHER third off. A third and final strike requires that they strip down to their underwear. Or, NAKED - whichever they are most comfortable with.
After three strikes, a participant is out of the competition. But they should take heart – because while they may have lost, the audience has most certainly won.
Both the winner of the Bee and the Best Striptease of the night take home $50!
While the Best Speller of the night will be chosen through purely quantitative means, Best Stripper is chosen in a more qualitative manner by our Secret Judge whom we have embedded in the audience. As with all things, if you compete in costume, the Secret Judge will look more favourably in your direction.
All striptease spellers do not pay cover.
Anyone can drop out of the competition at any time AFTER the completion of the SECOND round.
This is a queer, senior and trans-friendly event. We have a NO BOOING policy strictly in effect. No photos are allowed except by our Official Photographer. Our goal is to have everyone feel safe, secure and comfortable enough to strip and spell.
Regarding the No Photos Rule - we also have a Snitch Policy. If you are a member of the audience and you witness someone taking a surreptitious photo, BY ALL MEANS, interrupt the proceedings, come up to one of the hosts - SNITCH on the guilty party, and once they have been dealt with, you will be rewarded with a free drink.
We thank you for your patronage and understanding.

The game is played a lot like strip poker, but it's a spelling bee, and it's played in front of a live audience of hooters, hollerers and hecklers who want to see some smart and sexy skin!
Here are the official rules.
One by one, participants are asked to spell a word. If they get it right, they sit down. If they get it wrong, they must striptease A THIRD of their clothing off, and that is considered their first "strike". When they misspell a second word, that is their second strike and they must striptease ANOTHER third off. A third and final strike requires that they strip down to their underwear. Or, NAKED - whichever they are most comfortable with.
After three strikes, a participant is out of the competition. But they should take heart – because while they may have lost, the audience has most certainly won.
The winner of the Bee takes home (a) a few beers; (b) a CD with recordings of over an hour of cats purring loudly; and (c) a random lettered Scrabble tile pin you can affix to your outfit!
Best striptease will also take home (a) a few beers; (b) a CD with recordings of over an hour of cats purring loudly; and (c) a random lettered Scrabble tile pin you can affix to your outfit!
Best striptease is decided by a Secret Judge we have planted in the audience among you.
All striptease spellers get a free drink, and do not pay cover.
Anyone can drop out of the competition at any time AFTER the completion of the SECOND round.
This is a queer, senior and trans-friendly event. We have a NO BOOING policy strictly in effect. No photos are allowed except by our Official Photographer. Our goal is to have everyone feel safe, secure and comfortable enough to strip and spell.
Regarding the No Photos Rule - we also have a Snitch Policy. If you are a member of the audience and you witness someone taking a surreptitious photo, BY ALL MEANS, interrupt the proceedings, come up to one of the hosts - SNITCH on the guilty party, and once they have been dealt with, you will be rewarded with a free drink.
We thank you for your patronage and understanding.

One by one, participants are asked to spell a word. If they get it right, they sit down. If they get it wrong, they must striptease A THIRD of their clothing off, and that is considered their first "strike". When they misspell a second word, that is their second strike and they must striptease ANOTHER third off. A third and final strike requires that they strip down to their underwear. Or, NAKED - whichever they are most comfortable with.
After three strikes, a participant is out of the competition. But they should take heart – because while they may have lost, the audience has most certainly won.
The winner of the Bee takes home $30.
Best striptease will also take home $30.
All striptease spellers do not pay admission, and get a free drink.
Anyone can drop out of the competition at any time AFTER the completion of the SECOND round.
This is a queer, senior and trans-friendly event. We have a NO BOOING policy strictly in effect. No photos are allowed except by our Official Photographer. Our goal is to have everyone feel safe, secure and comfortable enough to strip and spell.
Regarding the No Photos Rule - we also have a Snitch Policy. If you are a member of the audience and you witness someone taking a surreptitious photo, BY ALL MEANS, interrupt the proceedings, come up to one of the hosts - SNITCH on the guilty party, and once they have been dealt with, you will be rewarded with a free drink.
We thank you for your patronage and understanding.

- HOW IT'S PLAYED -
One by one, participants are asked to spell a word. If they get it right, they make it through to the next round. If they get it wrong, they must striptease an item of clothing off, and that is considered their first "strike". When they misspell a second word, that is their second strike and they must striptease two items off. A third and final strike requires the striptease of three items.
After three strikes, a participant is out of the competition. However, at this time, they may choose to "save" themselves and remain in competition by taking one additional item off. From there on in, any misspelled words requires the removal of only one item.
Once a participant is completely naked, they are well and truly out of the competition. But they should take heart – because while they may have lost, the audience has, almost certainly, won.
The winner of the Bee takes home $50.
All striptease spellers get a free drink.
Anyone, at any time, can drop out of
the competition, at any stage of undress.

Small Print:
An "item of clothing" can be any of the following: sweaters, hoodys, jackets, shirts, blouses, bras, t-shirts, tank tops, cardigans, gloves (pair), shoes (pair), underwear, garter belt, socks (pair), filmy stockings (one), pantyhose, legwarmers (pair), shapewear, jeans, pants, leggings. Any other item not mentioned in this list is at the discretion of the moderator.
These items are disqualified as clothing: eyeglasses, contact lenses, piercings of any sort, earrings, any kind of jewelery, headscarves, barettes, hairclips, scarves, necklaces, bracelets, purses, manbags, fanny-packs.
Additionally, if a participant has "stacked the deck" so to speak, in their favour at the start of the competition by wearing an excess of clothing, the moderator can demand that they take some off prior to the start of the Bee, to create a more equitable starting lineup.
This is a queer, senior, & trans-person friendly event. Our goal is to make everyone feel safe, secure and comfortable enough to strip and spell. Anyone who serves to disrupt or otherwise endanger this goal will be promptly ejected from the premises & fucked up. Thank you for your co-operation. We hope you have a great time!
