Snaps from the Space Disco at @burlycon - or trying to make up for not taking many photos this weekend.
Being in community this weekend was exactly what my soul needed. We laughed, we cried, and we screamed in joy and frustration.
Time with old friends, made new connections. Exactly the things I needed. In times of uncertainty and darkness, it is community that saves us. Also, acts of resistance. Whether large or small. Steps were made to get organized. #burlylife #artsaveslives
I go to sleep tonight, angry, disappointed, frustrated, terrified. Regardless of the final numbers, Am3r1ca showed it's whole a$$ tonight.
But rage alone won't fix this. Our neighbors, co-workers, friends, and in some cases, family told us tonight that cheaper gas prices were more important to them than preserving our rights and freedoms. Their fear of "others" was too strong to stand up against someone who would run over them without thinking twice. That giving up the ability to select judges was less of an issue than running the risk of taking orders from a woman.
So much work is needed to even remotely fix this. Has to go beyond party lines, generations, geography, etc.
Overdue gratitude post! Huge thanks to the cast and crew for making #hazbinhauxtel so special.
Using a new venue is always a wild ride, but accessibility matters, and accessible Portland venues are few and far between! The cast and crew rolled with the hiccups like the pros they are.
From the insane attention to detail by @miss.nicole.pdx , @ninanightshade , @annanymph.official , @kisavonteasa, and The Eggboy, to the incredible stage slayage of @queerlyfemmetastic π₯the talent was stacked! And, a special shoutout to @thisisfanniefuller for live singing a challenging song and being an excellent co-emcee.
Enormous applause to @megz.madrone , @obscurafoxburlesque , @fernandfogadventures, and @mxmizrae for stage managing, box office, tip tarting, and handling front of house like the boss babes they are. And even more thunderous applause for my tech duo @hexy.lexi and @lpaklevi for making something out of a blank canvas.
Random assortment of photos from on and off stage.
Lastly, my gratitude to our sold out crowd who filled the walls with their screams and applause. Your geeky gasps made it all worthwhile.
It really was a F*ck!ng happy day in hell. π
Now that I have your attention. I am absolutely delighted to be performing in the Saturday night showcase of @umbraenoctisfest on November 16. Both nights are packed full of dark delights.
For some of us, dark delights are more than a season. Ticket link for individual nights or the full festival pass are in my bio.

Didn't grab a ton of pics last night, but here are a few that ended up on my phone.
Last night was a beautiful send-off to the @orburlesquefestival . Complete with honoring my loves @izohnny . I was honored to be a part of the weekend.
Cheers to all who performed or participated this weekend. Tip my hat especially to @kissylamay , @lolacoquette , @ririsyncyr , and @hollydaiburlesque π Thanks for the memories!
OMG, the photos rolling in from @sincityburlesquefestival have me feeling like a proper showgirl!

Still buzzing from @sincityburlesquefestival . @raquelreedxo and @enzo_iron were marvelous hosts. The @thespacelv was a cool room to play. The vendors were great. The live band on Saturday night was fantastic. The talent in every showcase was off the chain.
But most of all, it was the friends we made along the way. Here is but a sampling from the weekend. Thank you for having me! π₯°
Last night at @burlynomicon was so much fun. It was a treat to see so many of my dance friends last night on and off the stage. And I was pleased with my soft wood nymph nod to fall.
Thanks, as always, @natasha_riot - swipe 'til the end and help us name our Heart cover band. I'm still leaning towards Thexe Dreamz. π€£
Also, a reminder to other Producers that BIPOC performers contain multitudes. Last night we were aliens, vampires, wood nymphs....

What to say about @whatthefunkfest . This festival has my whole heart for so many reasons. But one reason most folks don't know is that it helps me get through the trauma of one of the hardest weeks of my life when I lost my Mom in September of 2018.
So this year, after losing Dad, I wanted to honor them both with this act that is a love letter to them both. The music, Tower of Power, was Dad and his hometown of Oakland. The color story was a nod the Fox Tower lighting, but really was all Mom.
I am still processing what it felt like to be in a competition, but I couldn't have asked for a better place to do one. The most important thing to me was sharing this act with folks who I consider family.
Thanks for these captures Miss Catwings.
And thanks for providing such an amazing space to share this kind of work @pucksaplenty , @stayuplateshow , and @_stormychance_ #FortheCulture
Whew, September has me blessed and booked! So, all y'all that keep asking me when I am performing in Portland again, you have four shots at this! All links in my bio.

Last night was a blast. After a really hard week, being gifted time with these delightful humans - in community with a bunch of thicc folks and their allies - was medicine for the soul. Thanks @chub_hub_pdx for curating the experience.
Sound up @pucksaplenty for the song the DJ couldn't find!

Here's something I never thought I would post....come out and watch me compete on Saturday night!
Listen, this whole night's cast is stacked to the roof, so come out and see an amazing show.
@whatthefunkfest is Homecoming for many of us, so do NOT miss this weekend of the Funk, the whole Funk, and nothing but the FUNK.

Sheer will. By this point in my act I could barely see out of either eye. TL:DR huge shoutout to the cast Booklover's Burlesque Banned Books edition who rallied around me to get me on stage and helped get me packed up after I came off stage. Especially @deva_pdx and @kisavonteasa (thank you for the video!)
That was the scariest drive home I have ever made because both eyes were streaming with tears and my right eye was just a foggy blur. Thank the Ancestor I made it home unscathed.
Went to urgent care first thing in the morning (via Lyft!) and it turned out I had not scratched my cornea as we thought, but had a virus (not pink eye). Shoutout to Kaiser in Beaverton for taking care of me so quickly and getting me the relief I desperately needed.
My body went into fight mode all day Saturday and I slept between eye drop doses. And I mean slept.
Today, I am so much better and can function with both eyes open. I went hard all July and apparently my body decided we needed a reset.
Once again, I am super grateful for everyone who took care of me Friday night and checked on me yesterday. Love you, fam.
Thanks as always to @lacyknightly123 for having me, I love Booklover's Burlesque so much!
Just FOUR days left to score this little piece of history!
Celebrating 5 years of What the Funk?! Fest this year with a very special AfroDite created by the Art of Lori Collins.!
AfroDite was conceived in 2018 and is the beloved mascot of our festival. Show off your love for this all BIPOC festival and support the movement and add a little extra Funk to your wardrobe in the process!
A lovely moment from Sat and then scenes from Sunday's absolutely delightful pool party. Thanks so much to @the_haus_of_jane and @rebelvitaleburlesque for being delightful hosts all weekend. Had an excellent home stay with two very friendly kitties. Reconnected with friends, deep conversations with people I adore, some mild shenanigans, met a whole host of new folks, oh, and I performed!
Hope to be back!
Bringing a new act full of drama. DRAAAAAMAAAA β€οΈπ₯

Hotness of @obscurafoxburlesque
, @stayuplateshow , and me dripping in chocolate at BHOF for that Go Go Rhythm
#juneteenth #pridemonth
Even though it meant missing most of the glitter crash party, I made it to BHOF to see Let's Get Loud. This meant quality time with @cubanmissilecrisis and @delilahdubois, @lillian_bustle , @viktordevonne , and @theantonioamor , so going to call that a win.
The #letsgetloud exhibit at #BHOF will be up until October, so go see it if you are in the area!! Huge congratulations to all who worked on curating the exhibition, provided items from their personal collections, and worked tirelessly behind the scenes to include items that are truly legendary (IYKYK).
#decolonizeartcollection #laculturanonsiferma
So behind on posting, but last night was surreal. Not only performing in a cast stacked with so much talent, but then sponsoring the after party with @pucksaplenty and dancing into the wee hours.
I still don't quite have the words for this experience other than awesome, in the truest sense of the word. More later, so enjoy these snaps from last night.

Books are open for the fall and winter.

It's one month until BHOF and I make my debut at Movers, Shakers, and Innovators. We had a cast chat over the weekend and the whole thing is still a bit surreal.
But I can't wait to bring this technicolor hip hop fantasy to that stage. (with a few key upgrades).

Happy Friday, especially to all the new folks popping up.
I have a super chill weekend planned. Classic 80s movie night at a local theater tonight and a sci-fi wedding on Saturday for sparkle friends. What's up this weekend for y'all?
Here are some luscious performance pics from @salortizphoto from a couple months ago to get you in that Friday space. I don't normally post the pastie pics, but it's the first weekend of Spring and feels right. Enjoy!

Saturday was my five (!!) year burlyversary. And this past weekend was a tremendous way of celebrating!
Booklover's was truly one of the first regular shows in Portland that was a goal when I started. In part because BeeBee was actually born three years earlier as a published short story author. I have been fortunate to both perform and read for the shows in the past (yes, even my own work), and truly fortunate to have been in casts for both year's of the Annual INTERNATIONAL BOOKLOVER'S BURLESQUE FESTIVAL.
It was an amazing weekend filled with old burly friends connecting with online friends for the first time and meeting fabulous new folks!
Thanks @lacyknightly123 for an epic ride!
