This Saturday at with is my last time onstage for a while! I’ll be doing a number I haven’t done in well over a decade. I was so flattered when it was specifically requested – I can’t believe she remembered it! Not only that, she learned my obscure song and I’ll be performing to it LIVE! I had to go into storage and see if I could get my post-menopausal body into the costume, which I could – and I haven’t done it since meno, because it was the number I did every time I was on my period. When I first looked at it, I thought, “No rhinestones! I better update it!” But then I decided to let it be seen exactly as it was. This is some seriously archival s**t!
Most of my older numbers haven’t been seen in quite a while. There aren't videos of any of them, and there are few pictures. In many of them I did things I wouldn’t have wanted to be filmed or photographed, though the one I’m doing Sunday is comparatively, shall I say, presentable. My reputation got overtaken by my interest in historical burlesque and my interpretations of classic routines, and many people don’t think of me as a neo-style performer at all. Still, I had my moments. In one I got coal in my Christmas stocking, stuffed it into my [redacted] and crushed it into a diamond–-take that, Santa Baby! Occasionally I brought back some of my old skrip joint routines like one where I got fully nood (yes, there were/are fully nood burlesque shows) except for pearls and then pulled pearls out of my redacted (you can see this one on an old episode of The Robin Byrd Show!). In another old strip joint number I got audience members to put on red lipstick and kiss my behind, resulting in a red leopard print effect. There were no rhinestones in any of these numbers – unless you count my Christmas diamond, which was on the inside, not the outside, of my costume.
I loved not being photographed or filmed, and never really adapted to the constant media we experience now. I’m not saying it was better – but I am saying if you never saw this number back in the day, this is the only chance you’re going to see it!

Schedule 13/08/2020

Hello everyone!

I've been working for The Burlesque Hall of Fame in its many incarnations since 2004. The first time I went to what we now call the weekender, it was on a ranch in the middle of the desert, and Dixie Evans was proudly showing us through her collection as it was set up in a house on the property. That was a wild, woolly time! The closest thing we had to social media was Yahoo Groups.

Find out what it was like to make this pilgrimage! Join us at Ranch Un******ng for a live discussion on August 16!

Black Burlesque Directory makes all-white lineups and tokenism "inexcusable" says creator ⋆ 21st Century Burlesque Magazine 23/06/2020

If you're a non-black producer, please read this, as black erasure and tokenism contributes to inequality and racism in our art form.
