    The audience. There’s no “theater etiquette” in burlesque. There’s hooting and hollering and whistling and laughing and all sorts of calling out. It amazing and as a bonafide attention wh0r3, it feeds my whole exactly how I need it to.

    And at this point no, I feel very confident and comfortable doing burlesque. On the rare occasion I do traditional theater I get extremely nervous though.

      Did you try any other stage arts, or did you fall into Burlesque from the start?

      Sorry if you’ve answered this a thousand times, but as someone who very much understands loving the crowd interaction(community theatre, we were a lot less stuffy, especially during things like Rocky Horror), it makes me curious.

        I’ve been a dancer since I was like 5 years old, and started doing more traditional theater when I was like 13. Went to college for theater and still occasionally to this day will audition for a little community theater performance or something. But since I started doing burlesque that has pretty much been my primary passion.
