Have yourself a Bavarian Christmas

Get in the holiday spirit early this year with a Bavarian-themed burlesque Christmas party at the Bell House.

The Gowanus venue brings in the Oktoburlesk Players for this night of polka, courtesy of none other than Grammy-nominated polka sensation Alex Meixner, with the ladies of Wasabassco Burlesque providing the skin as they take on the classic Christmas show genre.

In keeping with the theme, competitive cook-off pros Theo Peck and Nick Suarez will be on hand supplying their pork belly bratwurst.

It all happens December 1 at 7:30 p.m. at the Bell House (149 7th St.). Tickets are $10. For more information, call 718-643-6510.
