ABOUT THE SHOW

SpeedBump is a vision for the future of burlesque, setting up collaborations with local boundary-smashing performers in various cities across the Western half of the U.S. to showcase the innovative and explorative facets of the genre.

Irreverent, political, genre-blending and gender-bending--the unique talents of these fabulous four converge to highlight the most thrilling aspects of the neo-burlesque movement. Drag, Dance, Performance Art, and Anthropology come together in an edgy spectacle fusing the ecdysiastic and academic with grace and charm (and a healthy dose of skin).

About Wiggy Stardust
Avant-garde, irreverent, and political-- Wiggy Stardust blind-sides the boundaries between performance art and burlesque with her unique brand of shimmery subversion and high-concept performance. Wiggy earned her Bachelor of Fine Art at the University of Washington in 2010 with a concentration in Digital Art and Experimental Media (DXARTS), finishing up her art school education a highly controversial (and censored) electronic burlesque performance. Wiggy has graced stages all over Seattle with her lavish and outlandish sensiblities, rocking the casbah from glam rock operas at The Crocodile to Teatro Zinzanni's late-night cabaret, Mezzo Lunatico. She most recently produced and performed in an evening of feminist performance art and burlesque at the Henry Art Gallery, Seattle’s contemporary Art Museum, in conjunction with the academic symposium honoring artist Carolee Schneemann, Streaming In From the Moon.
