Burlesque Update #15

In my last update I said that there was a possibility that we might start face-to-face classes again, and, back around the end of July, this happened. We're in a new space, which seems pretty good, and putting together the solo acts we'd started work on in April/May. There's still the possibility of a show, albeit with a very small live audience. The aim is to stream it online, though, so anyone with a ticket and an internet connection can watch it. It won't be quite the same, teasing a remote audience, but I'm sure we will rise to the challenge.

I am still pursuing my 'new' look:


But there's more. If all goes well (and in these times that's a big If), then at the end of this year I will be taking part in another burlesque competition. This time as part of a duet! A local performer asked if I'd like to partner up with her, and I was so shocked that I said Yes on the spot. She's someone I greatly respect and admire, and the chance to work with her in developing a new act is far too good an opportunity to miss. More on this as it progresses.

So a short update, but an update nevertheless.
