Viva La Muerta Hot and Heavy Burlesque will revive slasher-flick favorites in its latest production at the Viaduct Theater on May 9. The group’s founder DanYell felt that combining her love of horror films into her burlesque show would bring their performance to a whole new level. “I felt like heavy metal and horror just go so well together,” she says. “Asking my performers to work with a horror-movie theme has really pushed them to be super creative.” The show will feature acts inspired by everything from “Evil Dead” to “Rosemary’s Baby.” DanYell was even able to get “Friday the 13th” veteran and Chicago native Ari Lehman to host the event. Expect to see more horror-themed Hot and Burlesque shows in the future. “I didn’t realize how many folks love horror films as much as I do around here,” DanYell says. “I’ve gotten such a great response to this show and there are lots of people who are super excited for a new way to experience their favorite films.”
