November 20, 2017I booked Francine for a private party and she was great. Easy to communicate with and really responsive to my endless questions and calls for help. She had good suggestions for the planning of the event, and on the day of, was on time, easy going and absolutely a professional. Her performance was fantastic, creative and full of style and wit. Francine is highly recommended.

October 16, 2017First met Francine at the Pink Room Burlesque show's performance at Joe's Pub in NYC. This was being filmed by Showtime for a documentary on David Lynch's Twin Peaks and its impact on pop culture. Francine and her performers where so talented and put on such a great show that we hired them for a couple of our BBQ Films immersive experiences. Francine is as great a performer as she is a producer and the team she was able to assemble for our events were an absolute pleasure to work with. Francine gets immersive experiences and is really able to connect with audiences in a unique way.

Each event and performance is different but generally speaking Francine needs a few basic things to make a show happen:
- A stage or adequate performance area
- A way to play music (stereo system with iPod hookup or live band, if applicable)
- A suitable private changing area
There are other things that might be needed depending on the specifics of your event but these are the basics that are needed for a burlesque act. Please provide as many details about your event and what you are looking for for your performance as possible when sending a booking inquiry.
Basic: When, where, how many performances over what period of time?
Details: Is there a theme of your event, do you want a specific themed act, do you have a set budget, is this a full show or just one or two isolated performances, etc.? If burlesque, what is the general mood and rating level you are looking for? If singing, is there a specific song you want sung?
Looking forward to hearing from you! - Francine
