Backstage!

Greetings from Pori! Tonight was so much fun -and sold out. Rumor is, there are still a few tickets left for tomorrow so get yours if in town!
Thanks to the audience and organizers! Oh, and to all you folks that asked about classes: Burleskinstituutti is the place to find good, professional and fun teachers! (link found at the side of this page ;)

Pori once more!

Just a reminder: me and Pepper will be on stage with the the dangerously curvalisious  Holy Curves! in ravintola Kulttuurikulma, Pori this weekend! Shows on both Friday and Saturday!!! Hooyah!

With Cherrie A. Dorable and Olivia ROuge aka The Holy Curves!

Patience...

Sometimes patience is the key word. "Time" being the other. And right now I lack in both... I really have been wanting to pimp my first ("Diamonds") outfit since there is some wear&tear to it, shoes I got done last summer and now it's time for the bra and panties. Due to my cock-up in ordering rhinestones on the web I had quite a few bags come in mini-size... Which tears on my patience since it's supposed to be done on Friday.
SO: here I am, glueing mini-thingies into "paisley" shapes and actually enjoying myself tremendously! This, my good peeps, is what burlesque can do to you: you find traits in yourself that makes your own mother ask "who are you and what have you done to my daughter". Yes, she did. I was never too patient nor did I enjoy handicrafts. And look at me now :)

Oh well, here's what I mean...

Orange ones are "regular" size (20), the small ones are the cock-ups.

Goodie bags.

Half done, before & after

Small, smaller...NERVES

Pantertanter 2

Thank you everybody at Newcomer's Night!!! Stella Polaire & Lafayette Lestrange -I blame you that my face hurts from laughing! Me and hubster had a blast last night in Tampere, a huge hug to Rhia and T.t Tassel for having us :) The show was brilliant, congrats to all new starlets!
I sported my great auntie Lempi's leopard print dress and went 60's with hair and make up. I'll post some party pics later...

Pantertanter

Pantertanter = Pantherladies, in Swedish. I used to snicker at my great auntie Lempi who had a love for leopard print, wore a wig and wanted to be Greta Garbo. Little did I know that a few years (ok, a lot of years later. Lempi was born 1908 and is departed quite some years ago, rest her wonderful dramatic soul) I would be just like her. Except I'd rather be Monroe than Garbo.
Looking at the pics from rehearsals yesterday made me realize I need more leopard tights ;)

Happenings!

Well, the weekend is here! I´m off to get Pepper in a minute and we have some rehearsals for the duo number we are doing in Pori next week, and tomorrow it´s off to Tampere for the Newcomer´s Night 2012! If you´re still pondering, don´t- just get the tickets! More info here!

The information for Ravintola Kulttuurikulma in Pori you can find here -even the info is wrong, Sandy won´t be on stage...you will have to do with yours truly :) You can see Sandy, Rudie Ruthless and Lucie Goodness at Nosturi in Helsinki on the 23rd at Welcome to Candyland!!

While we shake our thang in Pori, Kiki Hawaiji is hosting Kokomo Burlesque in Helsinki. On stage Cherry "Turrrbo-Cherry" Dee, Bent van der Bleau and Bettie Blackheart! Tiki-drinks and pineapple paradise to wipe this November rain away!

Have a marvellous, sunny Friday folks!!!
