Hellcat Girls disband after six fleshy years together

First TLA Video closes, now this: Local burlesque troupe Hellcat Girls is calling it quits after six years together. The girls says it's because emcee Athena Onatopp is packing her bags and heading to Austin. But doesn't that mean six of them will be left in Philly? Couldn't they make it work? Yes, sorta maybe: "It's kind of like the Halloween movies. Supposedly it's the last time, until next time," says Deirdre Franklin, better known as "Little Darling" onstage. "We're all still performing individually, and plan to continue to book shows. They may just not be under 'Hellcat' anymore." Well that's better. Their final show as a group ' for now? ' will be on Tue., Oct. 27 at Kung Fu Necktie (1248 N. Front St., 215-291-4919) from 10 p.m.-2 a.m., for $10. The full original line (including Kiki Berlin) will be performing, and Olde City Sideshow will be their special guests.
