I started planning this burlesque show from Prague, after seeing Gustav Machatý's
Erotikon, from 1929. It's actually happening in a couple of weeks, and I'm super nervous! I've never produced a show before. But I'm getting a lot of help from Tata's and the ladies, who seem to be excited about the theme, and the Rendezvous even ordered me a bottle of absinthe (or that which is branded as absinthe) to make a drink special: the Royal Absinthe Fizz. Champagne makes it fizzy! :)

My new act is princess-themed, because I had many princess fantasies while wandering through Praha. My colors are pink, silver and rose. ("Mah culahs ah
blush and
bashful!-
Steel Magnolias). Half of it is to a Smiths song and the other half to a Hildegarde cabaret song from 1935. It's a shame I wasn't able to link up with the burlesque troupe in Prague. But it's fun being able to draw on my experiences there in a creative way, now.
