Introducing...The Carolina Heartbreakers!

When I found out that I would be moving back to my homestate back in October, I started to do a little research. New York City, being the dynamic center of urban creativity that it is, has a thriving burlesque scene. Every night of the week, there is a burlesque show or two to be found somewhere on the stages of that city. As a performer, this is fortuitous, because if you do your booking properly, you can stay fairly busy.

North Carolina, on the other hand, has a much more subdued scene. There are shows popping up here and there, but The Triangle has no burlesque "scene" to speak of. I found this fact quite surprising, considering the wide range of creative, intellectual, and performer types that make their home in the RDU. That's typically a breeding ground for saucy ecdysiasts like us.



I was fortune enough, thanks to word of mouth, stumble across 3 talented and beautiful women who are also very skilled burlesque performers:

Miss Rachel Riot
Miss Mary Wanna
Miss Lila Lavender

A blonde, a brunette, and a redhead, all different beautiful body types, all different styles of performance. I was stoked, not only because it meant we could build a scene and have spaces to indulge in our tease, but also because it was something unique and thrilling that we could bring to an area already thriving with new ideas. Scandalous.



I am really excited that we create this in The Triangle, and we hope that you'll join us in all of the unadulterated fun we plan to have at our shows.
