Welcome
to the #1 site for information about the burlesque revival.
This unique site, created and maintained by Jo "Boobs" Weldon,
is the internet's most popular, complete, and up-to-date portal and resource
for burlesque news, research, history, and culture.
It contains hundreds of original and exclusive photos of new burlesque performers, including
many from events such as Tease-o-rama, The New York Burlesque Festival, Miss
Exotic World, and Coney Island's Burlesque at the Beach. It also contains hundreds
of links to performers and articles about burlesque and stripping. There are
links to resources for anyone interested in performing or enjoying performances
all over the world. The culmination of decades of experience as well as many
years of research and countless hours of programming, it is the first and only
site of its kind.
Roland Barthes, speaking of the stripper's G-string:
This ultimate triangle, by its pure and geometric form, by its brilliant and hard material, brandishes sex like a pure sword and re-imagines the woman in a mineralogical universe, the precious stone being here the irrefutable theme of the total and unuseful object.
