In a community of many burlesque performers you meet and see a lot
of fun things, people, and acts. It is inspiring as well as intimidating! It's always enjoyable to see uniqueness, not the expected beautifully choreographed, dazzling rhinestone, tassel reveal strip tease show, but comedy acts full of interesting props, role playing acts with multiple people, it's not so much a sweet solo anymore.
The intimidation is mostly the anxiety of what to come up with next, how to portray your vision, what has not been done before, venues that have not been reached, with such endless creativity, I feel sometimes stumped, stunted, and scared.
It is a challenge! I have spent a great deal of time and money pressing my imagination! Stretching my dollar making duct tape shimmery pasties, mix matching costumes, adding a small detail here or there, building giant cardboard props, gluing, taping, borrowing, trying, and rehearsing. Everyone is different and in all and all it is fun, and it is intimidating! Such is Life, and what is life without it all!!
In this life, I have learned a lot from my group of merry heathens! I have received a great deal of support through them as well as our community. We are always looking for more and more ways to give back! Whether a compliment to our Burlesque sisters, gratitude and prizes to our audience members, cash and food donations to the ones in need, and a helping hand in general.
What will we come up with NEXT!!!!
