Course programme

We will work on fan dancing and striptease, two very diverse and distinct elements of burlesque performance. During weeks 1-3 we will work intensively on fan dance with students mastering technique and choreography and then going on to devise a short individual piece of performance. During weeks 4-6 we will move on to striptease, again the session time will divided between taught elements and tutor facilitated devising.
