Love Star Wars? Love watching people dance around in scantly clad costumes? If you answered yes to both, boy do I have something for you in Denver this May and June…

An Australian burlesque show, The Empire Strips Back, blends the world of Star Wars with the risqué fun of burlesque at Denver’s The Arch venue (3001 Walnut St.).

The two-hour show, that originally visited Denver in 2024, brings favorite Star Wars characters to life, with loving detail and humor, that is said to leave audiences laughing and swooning at the same time.

The show will play in Denver May 8th through June 21st.

Tickets are $49 to $129, available at feverup.com.
