Burlesque Hall of Fame

In June 2019 I had the supreme honor and privilege to travel to Las Vegas and perform on the Burlesque Hall of Fame stage.

If you happen to find yourself in Las Vegas, I encourage you to visit the Burlesque Hall of Fame Museum. Your support keeps this art form alive!

The Things You Learn at Burlesque School

This article focuses on the Academy’s Boylesque 101 program, but it also includes bits from some other classes featured at the Academy.  This is another piece that features a behind-the-scenes look at burlesque.  I can be found in most of the photos in this article, rehearsing my James Bond fan dance.
