Thread: Too Cheesecake?

I've been asked to do a performance on Valentines Day and to have a routine to go with a 1920's prohibition era/speakeasy theme.
Apart from only finding out about it a few days ago (they had a cancellation) and having to think up something new, I'm a bit concerned what I am planning could be 'too cheesecake'. It's being held in a rock club and I've been told by someone who performed there previously that it's not a typical crowd who would go to see burlesque (there are other acts on, bands etc so it's by no means a burly night) so I don't want to do something that they won't like.
Me and my fella are both rock/metal fans and said he thinks it's a bit too much like a cabaret and he wouldn't enjoy it if he had gone as part of a rock night.

What do you guys think?

You can never have too much cheesecake hon!
I think if its part of an ensemble night where there will be other styles you don’t have to worry too much…so long as ‘Burlesque’ is on the flyer somewhere the punters should know what to expect.

firstly.. CONGRATS honey on being asked. Secondly...work it the way you love and know. The rest of the audience will follow suit!

here , here i agree more cheesecake !!!! the organisers who hired you should know what the crowd wants or should be expecting to see . go give it to them and create some new burlesque fans

I love and adore cheesecake (though I hate the food hehe). You can never have to much and I always think that the world has to little so go forth on a mission to spread cheesecake to the world one club at a time!

And remember, goth/metal and punk girls are the same as anyone, they go home to their boyfriends/girlfriends and act all cute to get what they want....Teach them how its done!

I love rock and i love cheesecake! If you put on a good show, they will like you no matter what! Go for it and do what you do best xxx

Thank you all so much for your advice! I feel better about it now! And it will be valentines day so a bit of cheesecake won't harm anyone! Thank you xxxxxxxxxxx
