A burlesque is basically a show that is all about mockery. You'll find this type of thing on comedy channels sometimes... it can also be a mockery type show with very little clothing though, so you have to be careful using the word.

It basically means to mock, or make fun of (usually in a "randy" manner) of an otherwise soemn subject.
