A word we are all obviously very familiar with. Do you do any burlesque? Do you have a favorite dancer[besides Veronica or Dita =P] or troupe?
This past February I went to Wicked Faire in Somerset, New Jersey and watched the White Elephant Burlesque Society perform their Alice show. It was absolutely brilliant!
This girl, Dangrrr Doll was definitely my favorite. The girl who played the Catterpillar was brilliant too but I don't think anyone got a video of her.

I have started doing Aerial burlesque, and it is wonderful fantastic fun. My favorite performer (that I sadly have only seen videos of) would have to be Mr. Mistress. He performs in drag and sometimes uses his boobs for poi which is pretty fantastic.

I've done a cabaret/burlesque-ish act with two friends, from the movie Cabaret. It was great fun to do.
Needless to say, I really like burlesque. I've seen a performance from Hayley Jane that I really liked, and of course, I enjoyed Emilie's burlesque act too.

Aerial burlesque? That's gorgeous. I'm hoping to learn over the next few years aerial hoop and silks because I have so many ideas for routines, but I haven't quite built up my conditioning just yet. I perform a lot of circus themed burlesque and implement my sideshow skills into my burlesque acts. Either that or I do very cheesy comedy based routines since dance isn't really in my background. weepingwillow: Although classes are wonderful, you can still get into burlesque without going away and taking classes all the time. Watch videos and learn and dtry and do so without taking a routine step for step. I'm sure there are some tutorial vids online. My most recent routine that there is video footage of somewhere is my wind up doll one.

I also do burlesque. Mostly aerial. :3 It's very fun. I don't have any video though, because I'm still just taking classes and am not very good. x3

I don't actually have any videos of myself performing, I don't think I even have any pictures of myself from the last two years save the one of me upside down on the support pole in my friends basement. However here's the best Mr. Mistress video I have seen featuring the poi boobs: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cVJ98TUv7g&feature=related(It didn't like the embed).
