Ruby brought our 1920s party to life!

My daughter recently graduated and is headed to study art history back East, so we planned a French Riviera themed 1920s party.(a world filled with artists and writers languishing at seaside hotels) Ruby was one our central entertainer and performed a 1920s fan dance set to vintage jazz music. She was incredible and completely engaged the audience. The rest of the time she took photos with people, charmed the graduation girl (my daughter) and my 88 year old father-in-law, a former actor/talk radio host, who commented on how she was fully in character, as a cabaret dancer from way back, the entire time. I can't recommend her highly enough. I love fully immersive party themes and Ruby commited entirely to helping me evoke the French Riviera of Hemingway and Matisse. Thank you for an amazing evening!

About

21st Century Burlesque Magazine (London) calls her the "poised porcelain princess of tease," and Clutter Magazine (New York) simply raves, "damn hot!"

Ruby Joule is a classically trained dancer and actress who has performed her award-winning burlesque and cabaret acts all over the world. She is a founding member and producer of the Jigglewatts Burlesque Revue in Austin, Texas, and instructor with the Austin Academy of Burlesque. As a burlesque performer she has been called "ravishing" (San Antonio Current), and she is a three time title holder at the Burlesque Hall of Fame in Las Vegas, the pre-eminent burlesque event worldwide, and holds the title of "Miss Tiki Oasis." She was crowned “Texas Performer of the Year” by Hot Rods and Heels Festival, and won “Best Costume” and “Most Original” at the Texas Burlesque Festival, among others. She has been featured in numerous burlesque and variety arts festivals and headlined the Ibiza Burlesque Festival, Toronto Burlesque Festival, Texas Burlesque Festival, Viva Dallas Burlesque, Bustout Burlesque in New Orleans, Peepshow Menagerie in L.A., Hubba Hubba Revue in San Francisco, Le Scandal in New York City and was named among the top 30 most influential figures in burlesque worldwide by 21st Century Burlesque Magazine (London) for three years in a row.

Ruby's performances are also a perfect fit for special events, corporate parties, product launches and even wedding receptions!

For event and party clients, she is able to bring additional specialties including "Marilyn Monroh!" the premier Marilyn Monroe impersonation, "Mrs. Rabbit," a sultry and humorous Jessica Rabbit costumed character and look-a-like, and go-go dancing for any style or theme.

Sarah Tressler of the San Antonio Express-News calls her "electrifying." Ruby has appeared on the covers of Bachelor Pad Magazine, Piney Woods Live Magazine, Space Squid magazine, The Austin Chronicle, Metro ANE, Pin Curl Magazine, and in the pages of The Economist, The Wall Street Journal, and Famous Monsters of Filmland in vintage inspired ads. A featured model for Secrets in Lace, Timeless Trends Corsetry, Emily Clay Corsets, Dakota's Vintage, and Pony-Cha Paris, she also graced the pages of UK-based Tease and Cake Magazine in vintage style pin-up pictorials. A pin-up model, music video queen, film actress, and international burlesque sensation, she’s the “The Polished Gem.”
