burlesque time - the dancers



So is burlesque a form of art or just prurient titilation for the unwashed masses? I would beg to suggest the former.

The burlesque performers to whom I've spoken view their acts as empowering not exploitative - erotic not pornographic. Jemimah and Harley Quinn, the two who danced last week at 'The Wallflower Express' open-mic night, owned the stage and both gave bravado performances.

I applaud them for their courage and for their art.
