Showcasing…
Candy Del Rio With a background in dance and a smoldering stage presence, Candy has been seducing burlesque audiences with her sexy allure since 2006. She is a regular fixture in Astro Pop Events annual productions such as Elvis Birthday Fight Club and Yuri’s Night. You can also catch her at The Gibson and in wild themed shows by Valentine Candy Burlesque, which she co-produces with Reverend Valentine. Candy’s special recipe mixes little bit of class and a whole lot of sass to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Dainty Dandridge Born and bred in Detroit Rock City, she has teased her way across the U.S. of A making her home in Washington D.C! She is co-producer of Best of Burlesque(er), DC’s only queer burlesque showcase, and stars in numerous revues and shows. Putting the Yay in Gay and the Ass in Class, Dainty is as delightful as she is delectable.
Cherie Nuit Having studied with Gilded Lily Burlesque and Paco Fish of Sticky Buns Burlesque, she now finds herself as a co-producer of Hot Night Productions, the show on the scene where weird meets wonderful.  Cherie has recently made her venture into the world of festivals, being a member of the Great Southern Exposure award-winning number “Kubrilesque”, and a performer at the Great Burlesque Expo’s Newcomer’s Showcase.
Aurora Wells  Aurora Wells is moving into her second year of burlesque. She has performed all over DC and has shown her talents in MD, VA, NJ, PA, and NC. She is a performer, Assistant Producer and Bookings Manager of the DC Gurly Show. This curvaceous delight is sure to keep you enthralled.
MC Hot Todd Lincoln  Hot Todd Lincoln is a Baltimore based MC and producer in the greater Washington, DC area. He connects with audiences using dry wit, bad puns, and snappy suits. He runs a tight show full of his favorite burlesque, belly dance and sideshow performers throughout the I-95 corridor, also dubbed the Tassel Trail! (He wrote that)
Spinnabel Lee! Spinnabel Lee is a dancer, variety and fire entertainer, entrepreneur, movement instructor, and writer. Spinnabel produces and performs circus-style hoop shows, theatrical dance numbers and fire dancing spectacles. Spinnabel’s obsessions with emotive dance, dark humor, and dusty vintage circus explode in a creative cacophony of highly entertaining movement and prop manipulation anywhere she stumbles.
