Dollar Dazzler's Adventures coming soon!

Happy Sunday Dazzlers and Dazzler-ettes!

I've been checking out the ABF facebok page and I'm getting quietly excited about whats going on this month now! I can't wait to take those classes now, just saying!

So! What have I got happening for the rest of the 6 months? Well, June is probably my most exciting month and I'm entirely looking forward to it!

I already did one photoshoot with Carnies with Candy, and here's just one of the amazing shots with their photographer Candy Goldsmith! The theme was candy, and I chose some strategically placed fairyfloss! I also made me some Zombie fairyfloss, I need to think of a name for my friend though, Bob Flossy maybe? 



June 26th: Classes with Imogen Kelly and Indigo Blue, totally will be blogging about that.
June 27th: Opening night of Perth International Burlesque Festival and My Birthday! Best Birthday Ever!!!
June 28th: 2nd big show of the Festival, will be there with bells on!
June 29th: Worskshop with Perle Noir and possibly Bunbury Cross, The last show of the festival, and I'm performing at the After Party!
June 30th: I will be shopping at the Retro Markets and peeking into the "Peep Shows" they're having!
Expect a massive Blogging spree to celebrate all of this amazing-ness!

July is my quietest month by far, I have no shows, but I'll be helping out in my "civvies" at Burly Unplugged on July 31st.
I am going to try and give a couple of Burlesque history lessons, one on how European Burlesque influenced entertainment in the Wild West (this is a topic I've recently discovered and it's blowing my mind how feisty these women were!) and I really want to put my investigation pasties on and find out what I can about Burlesque in Early Australia and entertainment in the Goldfields era.

August: I have a photoshoot early on in the month which is a work in progress, so it's very hush hush at the moment, however!
August 25th: I'm shooting a pin-up shoot with Rosie Button after winning a competition to do a shoot with her! Expect much nerdiness and blog about the shoot too!
Needless to say, I'll be sewing up a storm as a result!

September, October and November: I'm going to be performing a new routine every single month at Burly Unplugged! Stay tuned! There's 2 Steampunk routines and one very sexy Nerdlesque routine coming your way!

December: Nothing as yet, but stay tuned!

So for now, get excited about this month and all future events coming up!

Keep on Dazzling!

Dazzling Girls never stay still!

Evening Dazzlers and Dazzler-ettes!

Can I just say I love June this year? I am not a winter person at all, but this month like a month long Christmas for all things Burlesque here is Australia this month!

After watching with eyes keen on who won BHoF this year, I was so excited to see LouLou D'Vil won this year! That girl is a stunner, all hail your queen for this year! I was particularly excited to see my big Boylesque crush Ray Gunn winner of the King of Boylesque award this year, he truly is dreamy and very much deserving of the award! Excuse me while I stop drooling for a moment....
ok.....
Done!!!

Now! Tonight starts the Australian Burlesque Festival, with the Baby Bombshells competition! I've gotta say, good luck to all those performers, the rules are you have to have been performing burlesque for less than 2 years, so these really are the future headliners of this business, and its great to give them this kind of platform!



After all the hooting and hollering of ABF, the next anagram of the month is PIBF, which is Perth Burlesque Festival! yay! I'm so excited about this, I am doing Perle Noir, Indigo Blue and Imogen Kelly's workshops which I am stupidly excited about, especially Indigo Blue because my dream is to go to Burlycon in Seattle one year which she created/runs, its one of the most amazing ideas I've ever seen and I just want to be a part of it and contribute! I'm still considering going to Banbury Cross' fan dancing class, if anyone can tell me what its like I'd love to know!


Now don't forget I'm performing at the official After Party on Saturday night after Glitters, Garters and Tease! $5 to see me shake it!!!!

Also!!! The night before PIBF starts, 26th June, if you want a lead up to some of Perth's new talent, Burly Unplugged is going to be on the night before, now I probably won't be there unless it's right at the end, but seriously, if you're visiting from out of town, go to the show, see those treading the stage for the first time and hoop and holler for them!

You can find details and (whatever remaining) tickets for the Australia Burlesque Festival here.
