Too bawdy for ballet, after 15 years at the barre, Wednesday Du Monde (she/her) swapped her pliés and pirouettes for pasties and peeling. Since discovering burlesque in 2011, this hedonist artiste has performed as a member of Olympia’s Own TUSH! Burlesque, in Land of the Sweets: The Burlesque Nutcracker, and as a solo artist throughout the Pacific Northwest and the bayous of Louisiana. Shimming away the rigidity of her prim and proper ballerina training, Wednesday thrills audiences with her eclectic style and proclivity to act a fool. Her nomadic nature shines through in her dizzying variety of acts, from lipstick to leather, bubblegum to booze, and peanuts to polar bears. 

Roxy Reverie (she/they) is dynamite, erudite, and here to serve you FACE! Although hailing from what is colonially known as “New Jersey,” Roxy claims “Vancouver, Canada” as her burlesque home and has performed her high-octane numbers with various local burlesque and drag productions. Roxy is also grateful to have participated in several festivals, most notably the What the Funk?! Festival, Vancouver International Burlesque Festival, Boombox Burlesque Festival, New York Burlesque Festival, and the Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekender’s Tournament of Tease. Passionate about community, Roxy is also a co-founding member of Diasporic Dynasty, an all BIPOC burlesque, drag, and performing arts collective. 

Cobra Thigh (she/her) is a fierce and tantalizing presence on the burlesque stage, striking with precision, power, and a playful wink. Her journey into the world of burlesque began right here in Connecticut at a Pints and Pasties show. Determined to make the stage her own, Cobra Thigh immersed herself in burlesque classes, honed her skills as a kitten, and soon found herself commanding the spotlight with solo acts that blend strength, seduction, and just the right amount of sass. 

Ladybird Vixen graces stages with a mission to make hearts and parts flutter! With a background in pole dancing, Ladybird Vixen made her acrobatic burlesque debut in 2019 in Fort Collins, Colorado. She loves the modern evolution that has happened in the burlesque world, making the space for silly and sexy to collide. Ladybird believes that burlesque should be accessible to everyone to both watch and perform. She currently teaches workshops and produces a show called "Pints and Pasties: A Burlesque Revue" at local breweries and cideries in CT.
