Burlesque is an art form known as the art of the tease, where performers strip tease on stage. It is a sex-positive, performative art form that allows individuals to express themselves and explore their sexuality. It is a diverse and inclusive community that welcomes people of all backgrounds. It has a rich history, with origins in vaudeville and burlesque houses in the 1830s. Burlesque is especially popular in the United States, with a thriving scene in Minnesota. The burlesque community is inclusive and open to all bodies, genders, and expressions.

To become a part of the burlesque community, it is recommended to see a show and consider taking classes at a local burlesque school. Costumes and choreography are individualized, and performers often have standard acts that they perform at different venues. Burlesque shows often feature individual and group acts, with performers gradually removing their clothing to reveal a G-string and pasties. The art form has evolved over time, with different styles and props being used, such as feather fans, boas, and silks. Costumes and rhinestones are a significant investment for performers. While some shows may be unpaid, many producers pay performers based on the venue and the quality of the show.

Burlesque provides a space for self-expression and vulnerability, and it is a gateway to the sex-positive community for those looking for alternative ways to explore their sexuality.
