Fri, 18 Apr 2008 07:53:43 PDT
The more the burlesque scene grows, the more variation there is. I've noticed some strong trends in how/what people like to burlesque. - subverting social norms - sending up literary, TV and film characters - clowning or lampooning of stereotypes - personal political statements - historical and religious irony so, I thought it'd make an interesting thread to see what else we can spot. What tickles your fancies? What trends are you all spotting too? How do you like to burlesque?
