The Time Travelrs Tease! Step into the time machine and prepare for a glittering ride through the history of tease! The Time Traveler’s Tease follows Katja VX, a wide-eyed burlesque hopeful, as she is guided by her whimsical Fairy Godmother, Courtney de Vorst, on a dazzling journey through the eras of burlesque. With humour, heart, and high glamour, Katja learns the art of the tease while encountering iconic historical moments. From Victorian Parisian parlours to the underground speakeasies of Prohibition and the electric spirit of 1920s Harlem and beyond. Blending comedy, dance, drag, lip-sync, live singing and a touch of theatrical magic, this time-traveling spectacular celebrates the evolution of burlesque from classic to neo.
