Miss Lily White
"My life in...burlesque"
More about our speaker...
We are absolutely thrilled to
announce that our next speaker will be Miss Lily White talking about her
life in burlesque. Born in Australia, raised in New York City, and now
resident in London for many years, Lily is truly an international burlesque
sensation! Her unusual upbringing in one of the most exciting cities in the
world found her surrounded by artists, musicians, performers, drag queens,
intellectuals, dreamers and divas.
She went on to study dance and drama in New York and London, and to
become obsessed with the glamour and romance of bygone eras - Paris in the
20s, Berlin in the 30s, Hollywood in the 40s... With influences ranging from
the brash confidence of strong and sexy screen sirens such as Mae West to
the saucy British seaside postcard, the refined elegance of past burlesque
queens such as Lily St. Cyr to the timeless, innocent sexuality of classic
pin-up art, she absolutely revels in the sheer joy of the art of the tease!
