This on your feet workshop with The Boss of Burlesque aims to get at emotionally engaging performance by “working from the outside in”.  We can only talk about it so much, eventually we have to physically perform for the audience! And that is what The Fox is here to help you do! You will learn some traditional burlesque choreography and using that as a framework, you all will work toward the goals of emotional authenticity and confidence on stage. The physical portion of the class is based in individual attention, bossy encouragement and honest even-handed critique which you will be able to incorporate feedback immediately. Movement attire required. Heels encouraged, but optional.

Learn from Detroit’s favorite kitten herself, Eartha Kitten who has stage kittened for shows all over Detroit, including the Dirty Show and Speakeasy Sundays. Topics will include feeling comfortable being a part of the show, how to approach and work with performers you’ve never met, and of course how best to clean up after a messy act. All levels welcome. Participants should wear comfortable clothing and bring a notebook.
