Star Wars Burlesque Show Features Sexy Strip-Teasing Darth Vader And More


It might be a bit hard to imagine Darth Vader sexy dancing in latex but it looks like The Empire Strips Back: A Burlesque Parody offers kinky stripteases by everyone's favorite heavy-breathing baddie and more in its Star Wars themed-show.

According to Indy Star, the unauthorized Star Wars parody first started in Australia back in 2011. While The Empire Strips Back: A Burlesque Parody isn't sponsored, endorsed or affiliated with Lucasfilm or with Disney, the show's lasted for quite a while featuring sexy stormtroopers, a leg-showing Leia ballerina, a flame-throwing Boba Fett, and so many more.

But that's not all. The Empire Strips Back also has a male dancer playing Han Solo, and the production even has a Chewbacca and Yoda on stage. One of the highlights of the show though is the latex-wearing strip-teasing Darth Vader. Who knew one of the most feared men in Lucasfilm's galaxy far, far away could sexy dance?

"It's amazing how easy these characters translate to female versions," Russell Beattie, the creative director of The Empire Strips Back, said in an interview with the Huffington Post. "As long as you keep all their traits, then the audience is along for the ride."

It's pretty fun imagining sexy versions of Han and Vader, but we're pretty sure Star Wars fans have all had their different fantasies about their favorite Star Wars guys and gals at some point in their life.

The Empire Strips Back: A Burlesque Parody is going to be presented on April 14 at the Old National Center in Australia. Tickets to the show are set to go on sale this Friday.
