Yay! This is our first episode of Season Two, and our special guest is Dixie Denier!

Dixie Denier is a southern belle who shimmied her way over to St. Louis, MO to further her burlesque career.

She is the 2018 Shimmy Showdown Competition Champion, and headlined at the Show Me Burlesque festival. Dixie has appeared in the Kansas City Burlesque Festival, Show-Me Burlesque Festival and the Freezing Tassels Burlesque Festival in Anchorage, AK.  She is also a local producer and emcee of burlesque and feels at home with a microphone in her hand. When not dancing, She can been seen on several stages as an accomplished and award winning actress and singer, and has also graced the covers and pages of several pinup magazines. Dixie also travels the country as a vintage chanteuse, performing WWII era music  at reenactments and for many veterans of the greatest generation.
