Can You Spell N-A-K-E-D?

Strip Spelling BeeIf you like spelling and exhibitionism, you might want to participate in Toronto’s first Strip Spelling Bee. And if you’re a voyeur, you might want to attend.

The event will be held at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre on May 6. There will be only 15 contestants. The words will be tough (could you spell gneiss?) and if you get your word wrong, you need to remove 1/3 of your clothing. The strip will be accompanied by brassy burlesque music and red floodlights.
