About our Guest Stars:
April March:
April March worked in burlesque from 1952-1978, performing all over the US, Canada, Mexico, and England. She was called "The First Lady of Burlesque," in part because of her resemblance to First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy, but mostly due to her ladylike behavior on and off stage. Never crass or profane, April March was the personification of the "elegant" stripteaser and became known for her class and grace.
April headlined two Harold Minsky shows and Ann Corio's show This Was Burlesque on Broadway. In 1964, April appeared in a short film by Jim Henson called Time Piece and recently appeared in Behind the Burly Q.
She is the only permanent Guest of Honor at The Great Burlesque Exposition. In 2009, April graced their stage with her world-famous striptease for the first time in thirty-one years. Her act received a standing ovation. She is a regularly featured guest at the Burlesque Hall of Fame, most recently performing a duet with Jett Adore in 2014.
UPDATE: I am saddened to share with you all that April March has been hospitalized over the past few days. She has now been released and is under a doctor's care for the time being. He has strictly ordered her against flying or traveling until she has fully recovered. Due to these circumstances, April will not be able join us at the New Year's Eve Show. April and I are very disappointed that she will not be joining us, but will be rescheduling her to appear at one of our upcoming events in 2015. Please keep April in your thoughts and send well wishes her way. If anyone would like to bring a card, small gift, etc. to the show I will personally mail them all to her. She is truly a wonderful person, performer, friend, mentor, and inspiration.

Iris Le'Mour:
Iris Le'Mour, also known as the Exotic Flower of Burlesque, is a native born Texan. Infamous for her dangerous curves that have been known to drive men and women into a state of carnal frenzy. Staying true to the Texan girl in her, she keeps everything big-- big hair, big smile, big props, and BIG personality. This amazing performer holds such accolades as - 2012 Miss Burlesque America, 2013 Queen of the Sweet Tease, 2013 Queen of Great Southern Exposure, and 2014 Italy Queen of Burlesque, among many others! She's exotic, erotic, a little hypnotic and is sure to put her spell on you.
Skye Starling:
Originally from Oklahoma, Skye Starling now lives in Dallas where she is a full time aerial performer and aerial instructor at Vertical Fitness Dallas. She loves to dance in the air and has received several awards for her performances, including the Bedazzled Buffalo for "Best Variety Act" for a Lyra duo with her aerial partner, Aerie Deschain at the 2013 Oklahoma City Burlesque Festival! Most recently Skye was awarded 1st Runner up for Professional Lyra performance at the prestigious Miss Texas Pole Star competition!
