What does it cost to see the new ‘The Empire Strips Back’ live in NYC?

The Force has officially awakened.

If you’re a Star Wars” fan that’s seen the trio of the franchise’s trilogies too many times to count, we’ve got just what you’re looking for.

Running indefinitely at the Lower East Side’s Orpheum Theatre — which formerly housed “Stomp” — is “The Empire Strips Back,” a “Star Wars”-themed burlesque show.

At all 90-minute performances, audiences are treated to scantily-clad, gyrating Princess Leia, stormtroopers, C-3PO, Darth Vader, Boba Fett and many more characters reimagining the popular sci-fi series for a late-night crowd.

“I had a disconcerting suspicion that the taboo dreams of many of those around me were finally coming true,” wrote New York Post critic Johnny Oleksinski in his review of the titillating evening.

And if this sounds like the “Star Wars” show for you, we’re happy to report that you can grab tickets for “The Empire Strips Back” literally right now.
