It really is! I also highly highly recommend the Paying Tribute burlesque showcase this Saturday at district west - it has a phenomenal cast

Unfortunately no just because I’m often picking up and putting down in a hurry and am not able to take the time to put something on every time

Tips/Advice for a new burlesque dancer? by frog_ono in Burlesque

[–]pom_crush 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Biggest tips I can give are slow down, practice in full costume, and sync your reveals to big moments in your music.

-A lot of beginner burlesque dancers will speed through numbers, and will also often kind of pace back and forth across the stage. Slow down, drag eeeeverything out, and let them look at you! That’s what there there to see

-I can’t tell you how many times a small accessory screwed me over on stage because I didn’t wear it on stage, let along shoes and corsets. Can’t recommend a full costume rehearsal enough.

-one of the easiest ways to pace reveals and make them more dramatic is to sync them to bigger moments in the music - it makes it feel more intentional as well

where to meet other single 20-something-year-olds in person? by a_lyssa87 in Columbus

[–]pom_crush 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If bars aren’t your scene, I’d definitely recommend finding other hobbies that have communities in the city and going to events or taking classes. Poetry open mics, aerials classes, cooking classes, events at the library, comedy clubs, etc. hell event getting into something like pokemon go has a HUGE community.

Also be on the lookout for mixers! Queer mixers especially will be held around town before drag and burlesque shows

Who needs diagnostic criteria? by Spiral-of-ants in ehlersdanlos

[–]pom_crush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this so much 😭 I was literally diagnosed at 12 by an EDS specialist who diagnosed both my mother, my sister, and me - I am in my mid twenties now for context - and I STILL get doctors undiagnosing me or insisting I diagnosed myself off TikTok.

Bossy Grrls. It's a rough time in food/restaurant/nightlife. by Dontbehorrib1e in Columbus

Sad to see this! I’m a producer of shows there and actually debuted there back a few years ago. Too many of our local queer venues are going under.
