“There is a surprising amount of overlap between the storytelling and burlesque communities, maybe because they both, in a way, involve getting naked. People who choose to be vulnerable are rare. People who manage to do it well are even more so.”

“She does not collapse on the stage. She darts onto it, and says the most stunning thing, and then darts off. It is not the weight of her disclosures that stuns the audience, but the lightness of attention as it hovers between there and not there, between her enticing proximity and her blunt distance. Joan Didion is not a penitent in confession, or a lover ready for embrace. She is not even a burlesque dancer. God no. She is a boxer. She floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.”
― Steffie Nelson, Slouching Towards Los Angeles: Living and Writing by Joan Didion鈥檚 Light

“Dita Von Teese, a star in the contemporary burlesque scene, once recounted something she鈥檇 learned in her early days stripping in LA. Her colleagues鈥攂leach-blond dancers with fake tans, Brazilian wax jobs, and neon bikinis鈥攚ould strip bare naked for an audience of fifty guys in the club and be tipped a dollar by each guy. Dita would take the stage wearing satin gloves, a corset, and a tutu, and do a sultry striptease down to her underwear, confounding the crowd. And then, though forty-nine guys would ignore her, one would tip her fifty dollars. That man, Dita said, was her audience.”

“It was the impatience of the way he tore my panties from my body, that really turned me on: I was all he could think of, as his lust got the better of him.

I glanced back, and saw the underwear torn and discarded, a little strip of thin black material on the floor, and thought, Yes, this is the kind of impatient sex I鈥檓 looking for.

The way they looked so small, and cruelly forgotten, was a beautiful symbol of how much we both needed to satisfy our lusts.”

“The majority people seem to assume that sensuality means the amount of sex you have, or the amount of desire you have to have sex, or how seductive a woman is. But here鈥檚 the truth, sensuality is actually a reflection of the QUALITY of the 鈥檌nner鈥� life you already have. This quality can be infused in different areas including your sex life.”

“It is a woman鈥榮 duty to set the role a man should play in the relationship; she should NOT do it overtly though but seductively.

“There鈥檚 something different about when a female directs versus a male. The level of maturity, mutual respect, and energy that you get from a female director is so different. I鈥檝e worked with male directors who aren鈥檛 good, and no one says anything about it, but then we had one female director who was kind of all over the place and everyone complained. It鈥檚 so gendered. I feel safer when working with a female director because I know it鈥檚 from a female gaze.”
