favorite things to do!

Saturday
In Philadelphia--Details on the Way
Sunday:
The New York School of Burlesque Opens at the Slipper Room!
We've been planning for months and are thrilled to finally begin our
unique union of school and performance space. Classes will take place
in a one-of-kind setting in the Gem of the Lower East Side! The
Slipper has been presenting burlesque shows for almost a decade and
houses New York's longest-running burlesque show on Saturday nights.
3-4 pm: Costumes and Choreography: You've got to put it on if you
want to take it off! In burlesque, your costume IS your choreography.
Learn how to make the most of every costume element, how make your
outfits eye-popping, how to use decorations to emphasize your moves,
how to make your pieces break away, and how and where to shop.
4-5 pm Gorgeous Movement continues! I've been working for about a
year to develop a class that incorporates some basic burlesque moves
into easily-learned combinations that emphasize the energy and
deliberate style that will encourage the control and inventiveness
you need to perform at a high level. This is it!

On Wednesday November 7, you can see numbers I choreographed (and
maybe a peek of me) on CW-11's Gossip Girl. The numbers feature Angie

shoot, which was a wonderful, wonderful experience.
November 7, 8, 9, 10, I'll be appearing in Margaret Cho's Sensuous
Woman at New York's Zipper Theater. Details to come.
November 11, I'll be presenting a class with a burlesque legend,
Candy Caramelo, who performed with both Gypsy Rose Lee and Sally
Rand! If you've ever wanted to learn from a burlesque legend in
person, this is a rare opportunity to do so! She'll be telling
stories about her experiences and teaching a few special walking
techniques and hand movement tricks. Details to come.
November 18, Julie Atlas Muz will be teaching a class to optimize
stage presence and to improve the composition (the story and
narrative) of your numbers. If you want to own the stage, don't miss
it.
Saturday November 24, Angie Pontani will be teaching great moves for
Go-Go Dancers. Nobody does it better!!!
