Absolutely Fantastic-Look no further!

We hired Daphne along with an additional performer for our annual Oscar‑themed company party, and they were absolutely fantastic. If you're looking for performers of this style, look no further.
Daphne was incredibly easy to work with—she asked thoughtful questions about our color scheme and the overall look we wanted, ensuring everything aligned perfectly with our event vision. Communication through Gig Salad was seamless from start to finish.
Both performers were not only talented and professional but also genuinely lovely to work with. Highly recommend!

Perfect and Funny!

I hired Daphne for a friend's bachelor party. She was sweet, charming, and extremely funny. I need more friends to get married so I have an excuse to hire her again.

I booked her for my birthday party. The communication was easy and Daphne was very professional: she gave me best advices and suggestions regarding her performance.
She is a beautiful lady and I liked her costumes a lot! My guests enjoyed her performance and friendly personality.
Thank you Daphne!

About

I have been performing in various different roles and spaces for over 10 years. From character and themed entertainment, and now to burlesque! I have traveled the country to perform in large scale events, with upwards of 1,000+ people in attendance. Any themed gathering, gala, benefit, private party, cabaret style dining experiences, would all be elevated with a performance.
