About this Event
Burlesque Intensive
Learn the ins and outs of burlesque act development & create your own solo (or duet or group number) to perform (optional) live in the student showcase Dec 5th
In this intensive, you will learn the elements of burlesque persona & act development, including:
Character & persona, movement & choreo, storyline & act components, confidence & stage presence and more! Classes will be a mix of 'lecture', discussion, activities and movement. Students will begin developing their solos in class and be expected to work on them in between classes.
Each student will have an opportunity to work with the instructor & receive tailored feedback on their solo before performing.
Please note the costume is not included in the price of the class.
