The Grand Burlesque Extravaganza: KINGER👑

Kinger, 48, "The Monarch Key" - Kinger has been the dedicated pianist of the burlesque house for 27 years. It was here that he met his wife, an esteemed showgirl of her era, celebrated for her regal presence ans powerful voice. Since her retirement, he has continued to play in her wish, carrying the heart of the house in her honor. Under the bright lights, Kinger appears oblivious, easily distracted, and childlike at heart. Yet beneath dimmer lights, he embodies the spirit of a good king- gentle, steadfast, and deeply empathetic. Through the piano, he serves as the soul of the band and he himself, the quiet sanctuary many seeks, especially new showgirls, boylesques and bandmates overwhelmed by the grandeur and intensity of burlesque theatrics. His robe is not merely for show; it is a safety blanket for him, and for anyone who needs warmth, comfort, or reassurance.

'Monarch Key' is a play on the word 'monarchy', an amalgamation of 'monarch' to reflect his royal persona and name, the monarch butterfly for his fascination with insects, and his role as the maestro of the keys.
