8/28/2025 - Ms Femme Fatale presents Flow With Femme - Tickets on the ticket page
Scarlett Letter has a variety of pop-up Burlesque classes available.
Each class is independent, focusing on a single element, and is good for beginners as well as more experienced performers.
Here are a few examples.
Classes are approximately an hour, and are structured as a brief presentation on the topic and then a personalized discussion and experimentation period for all participants to explore the topics presented. Please email letter.scarlett@gmail.com with questions or accessibility requirements.
Floating to Pieces
An adventure in both Classic & Modern uses of the panel skirt in Burlesque performances.
Some samples and loaner sets will be available to share. If you have panel skirts, a large cape, or a full circle skirt, please bring it to practice with.
Go on Parade (Parade & Peel)
The basis of so many classic acts, and a wonderful jumping off point for neo burlesque as well.
Entrances, body presentation, walks, and utilizing all of the stage are just the start of this discussion.
Don't just Stand There (Floorwork)
The floor is good for more than standing on, and floorwork is so much more than splits and somersaults. We will gently explore methods of elevating our use of the stage as a prop and platform.
Knee pads or yoga mats encouraged.
Be a Fan of Fans
A session on the use of feather fans as both an element of tease and expression. We will also discuss different styles and construction methods, as well as upkeep and storage.
Bring your own fans, if available. Some samples and loaner sets will be available to share.
Informal and One-on-One sessions on Burlesque History, Touring, Act Development, Costuming, Producing, and general burlesque/performance questions are always available by appointment and the cost of a beverage at any fine Tea, Coffee or Cocktail establishment in the Washoe Valley Area. Email Scarlett to arrange a meet-up.
