All Blanche DeBris and Jonny Porkpie want to do to celebrate their 13th year performing together is a show packed with the neo-vaudevillian burlesque antics they're known for, and featuring sidesplitting stripteases from seductive superstars — but maybe they shouldn't have chosen the night before Halloween to do it! The comedy duo will try their best to bring their trademark brand of humor and nudity to the stage, but evil omens auger that they will instead be haunted by glamorous ghouls, titillating terrors, and flirtatious fiends, who threaten to turn their night of hilarious sexiness into a night of HORROR! (…sexy, hilarious HORROR.)

After a rollicking Las Vegas premiere in 2025, FLAPDOODLE Halloween Edition makes its East Coast debut at Unicorn Bar in Kingston, NY on October 30. Starring "American treasure, always high class" Blanche DeBris, burlesque mayor of New York City Jonny Porkpie, and a killer cast of frighteningly attractive, monstrously talented, disturbingly seductive burlesque stars including Fem Appeal, Jo Weldon, Tigger! and more.

  • "...their comedy as a pair is reinforced by chemistry. Neither is the “straight man” in any sense of the word per se, although Jonny does take the Abbott part in a transplanted version of Abbott and Costello’s “Who’s On First” routine, which they perform in its entirety without skipping a beat or missing a laugh. They also did the old burlesque “Niagara Falls” routine, and sang a spoof-song called “Killing Time” to the tune of “Make ‘Em Laugh”. Above all, the duo were palpably connected by a common drive to bring the wakka-wakka."

  • "You didn’t need to be a fan of Abbott & Costello, or even know of the legendary comedy team, to laugh at this rekindling of this classic routine. DeBris (known around VegasVille as the comic actress <name redacted>) and Porkpie (the self-appointed Mayor of Burlesque, who never terms out) kept the action moving during Saturday night’s Miss Exotic World competition at Orleans Showroom."

  • "There was one other BIG WIN of the night: the adaptation of the classic Abbott and Costello routine, “Who’s on First,” re-written by Jonny Porkpie and performed—to perfection—by Porkpie and Blanche Debris, was knock-down drag-out brilliant. This throwback act, done without nostalgia, with Blanche as the hysterical moron and Jonny as the cool-as-cucumber-vodka straight man, was sheer comic genius. I love these two hosting together; they keep getting better every year... I’d like to see this again and I hope someone at some festival somewhere has the sense to book it—it’s the best comedic retro-vaudeville act we’ve seen in forevs."
