Still sexy, still fun, but sometimes thought-provoking, statement-making, or just plain silly! Come prepared to move! Come prepared to think, but most of all, come prepared to dance! Burlesque II is a chorus/ensemble series that focuses on cabaret dance and burlesque movement within group dance routines and techniques. Students will learn the depth of burlesque storytelling from a place of authenticity. Students will also have the opportunity to help create their costumes, laying the foundation for the DIY nature of the burlesque industry. Students will learn 2 different choreographed routines, focusing on storytelling and characterization in an ensemble setting. Session 2: It's time to talk about that chair! This is a classic chair course with sass for that supported @$$! Learn to use the chair for formations and as a prop, how to adjust for space, and how to transition seamlessly from chair to floor to standing, all while figuring out how to strip out of a basic costume!
