Thread: as a newcomer to the world of burlesque

I'm quite a simple little girl really but i bet theres always lots of posts of newbie burlesque performers wanting to know more about the industry and how to get involved in more and more shows. I'm another newbie who started performing in May 2010, I've had a few shows & i'm looking for new exciting nights in birmingham or close by to perform at. I'm a resident dancer at teazed up but i want to keep on getting new experiances performing in different places.

Does anyone know of new nights in birmingham or hidden burlesque shows that i could contact would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Miss Candy Carnival

i was a bit confused on most of the site when i first joined, but its easy to get used to. most of it was things like "why doesnt this button work? oh, its not a button" and that sort of thing! its a great community though. and if you keep an eye on the jobs section there are always events to go for. although very rarely any paid ones. hope to see alot more of you. x

I performed my "Homeless & Thirsty" tramp act on the same bill as you on BCB's June show. Nice to see you here schweedie, welcome to the forum.
