There will be an entirely new look to the sexy, sassy and seductive X Burlesque when it celebrates its third anniversary Thursday night at the Flamingo. To mark the occasion, producer and co-creator Angela Stabile has embarked on a major expansion. In 48 hours, the X Burlesque topless temptresses will unveil an “enhanced” version of the randy revue with new dancers, numbers, costumes and temptations.

The X Girls will strip away their inhibitions inside Bugsy’s Cabaret with Britney Spears’ hit “3” in honor of their three years at Flamingo and kick off the show in style to a new pulse-pounding opening set to Metallica’s “Roam,” where the girls come to life through a picture frame. Snow, pole tricks and a hot hip-hop medley are some of the other additions to the show, while fan favorites such as the bathtub and the bungee ballet number remain in the line-up.

“By incorporating new numbers, new costumes, new girls and new choreography, we’ve enhanced the show and really turned up the heat,” Angela said. “Everyone is sure to enjoy this new, naughty, 90-minute ride.”

She’s also just weeks away from opening two shows in Atlantic City. Curtain goes up in April for another X Burlesque revue and its companion Men of X at Club Worship in the Showboat on the Atlantic City boardwalk.

As if that’s not enough, a third X Burlesque will open at Harrah’s Reno in Sammy’s Showroom on May 6. The out-of-town X Burlesque shows will be identical to the Las Vegas production, except with different casts recruited from dancers on the East Coast and in California.
