I was reading an article somewhere (can't remember where) and it refered to NEO-BURLESQUE. Can someone tell me what it is and how it differs to traditional burlesque?

Thanks x

To simplify and give you a solid not biased definition, this is what I pulled up on Wiki for you:

Neo-Burlesque (or "New Burlesque") is the revival and updating of the traditional burlesque performance. Though based on the traditional Burlesque art, the new form encompasses a wider range of performance styles; Neo-burlesque acts can be anything from classic striptease to modern dance to theatrical mini-dramas to comedic mayhem. As with the earlier burlesque, neo-burlesque is more focused on the "tease" in "striptease" than the "strip". Audiences for neo-burlesque shows tend to be mixed gender, age, race, and class.

And here is the link to the history of traditional burlesque, far too lengthy to post the whole thing ;]

My burlesque troupe tries to stay as near to traditional burlesque as possible, but Neo-Burlesque is amazing and very much wonderful as well, in my opinion :]
Thank you Miranda - didn't think to Wiki it LOL
