@burlesquehall is one of the most unique burlesque organizations in the world. Picture here is of Miss Topsy, a burlesque performer from the 1960s, one of the legends of burlesque whose legacy deserves to be celebrated. The Burlesque Hall of Fame was founded over 50 years ago by Jennie Lee and her friends, women who performed in burlesque shows in the 1950s and 60s, it continues to showcase their achievements and talents at a level you won’t see anywhere else. Women in their 70s and 80s who thought they’d never again perform the art they worked so hard to perfect show us how it’s done every year in June. On other nights, we showcase the talents of more recent performers, and on the Saturday night of the weekender we have a pageant that is world renowned, a pageant started by a legend of burlesque, Miss Dixie Evans. Dixie passed several years ago, and while she was ill performers from around the world held classes, shows, and events to raise over $40,000 for her — that’s what I’m talking about when I use the word “community.” I talked to her shortly before she died, and showed her media about the shows and and classes people were creating in her honor. I told her she’d achieved her mission of making sure people knew burlesque was an important form of entertainment with a history worth honoring, and that my students loved learning old-school bump n grind. She said, “Just make sure they do burlesque their own way.” She inspired me to say to performers, “Be the burlesque you want to see in the world.” She loved all styles of burlesque, old and new, and appreciated legends as founders and newbies as those who would carry the torch and help create new audiences. She taught me open-mindedness and generousity. I’ll never forget her!
