BLUE DIME is a pop-up cabaret troupe producing a lowbrow, avant-garde variety sideshow intended to cause laughter with ludicrous acts and bawdy characters.
The troupe includes burlesque performers, actors, magicians, dancers, contortionists, comedians, clowns, singers, musicians, drag kings / queens, and jugglers. Every show is a different combination of acts and runs about 75 to 90 minutes.

DIME : "dime museums" were a collection of lurid and sensational curiosities, monstrosities, and freaks exhibited for a low price of admission; “a dime piece” is a contemporary reference to an attractive person
