What to expect
Expect the upmost professionalism! Followed by glamour, glitz, class and tease! The biggest part of burlesque for me is giving a good tease and leaving you wanting more!
I will arrive with my assistant, costumes, props and music on MP3 player or CD.
My assistant is responsible for picking up all of my costume pieces at the end of each performance.

Known as "the girl who always encourages audience *precipitation", her brand of bump and grind burlesque is glamorous, classic and classy with the occasional bit of humor thrown in! Her costumes mostly from handmade, but occasionally she finds an amazing vintage gown to rework into an act!

April is also a teacher/instructor of burlesque and has given many burlesque workshops that includes dance, history of burlesque and costuming. She also teaches private parties.
