The History Of Tease-O-Rama:

Tease-O-Rama has enjoyed fabulous success since our 2001 show, which drew thousands people to New Orleans to witness the as-yet-unpublicized phenomenon of modern burlesque. In 2002, we moved our show to the gorgeous Bimbo's 365 Club in San Francisco - not only did we make the front page of the San Francisco Chronicle and SF Weekly, but we were pre-sold out before we even opened the doors! In 2003, we made headlines in Hollywood...The 2005 event is shaping up to be the biggest and best installment yet!

Since Tease-O-Rama 2001, we have seen a consistently increasing upswing in popular interest in burlesque. Many of the acts featured in Tease-O-Rama have enjoyed greater recognition since performing in New Orleans two years ago. New York's Pontani Sisters were guests several times on The Conan O' Brien Show, Dita von Teese appeared on the December 2002 cover of Playboy, and LA's Velvet Hammer troupe also enjoyed a television news spot on Entertainment Tonight. The Exotic World Burlesque Museum was featured on both CBS and NBC news. Tease-O-Rama and Tease-O-Rama perforrformers have been featured on NPR and A&E, have been noted in The New Yorker, the Dallas Morning News, Hustler magazine and the New York Times. Not to mention the opening of all-burlesque clubs in Los Angeles and New Orleans, the Hard Rock Hotel Las Vegas' in-house burlesque show, and the runaway success of Broadway's revival of Gypsy. There's even a long burlesque sequence in the July-released Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle. Signs are everywhere that the new burlesque is picking up steam!
