“When you pick a location, you pick power.
Every(body) Wants to Be a Showgirl is not in a ballroom.
It is not in a black box theater with grant money and velvet curtains.
It is not above ground.
It is beneath Washington, DC.

Dupont Underground – a repurposed trolley station with concrete walls that remember trains. Fifteen thousand square feet of industrial tunnel. The kind of place that federal museums would call ‘raw.’ Raw is accurate.” - Read More on Substack or Swipe for some Highlights.

“Everybody Wants To Be A Showgirl Until It’s Time To Credit The Source” written by as a guest article on website.

We’ve known about this particular article in the series since last month as we reviewed the final draft and we are excited to share even more.

We went further than yesterday’s post and are sharing 20 slides and it’s still not even the whole article. Go read it!

“Preservation is a practice and an infrastructure built through documentation, naming, and continuity. It is not passive. It is something we maintain in real time.”

“This exhibition is a structural rupture in burlesque history.”

“I participate in this exhibition as:

- Exhibiting Artist
- Liaison Team: Marketing & Communications Strategist
- Community Partner: As Founder of Siren Pack

Not because I want proximity to visibility. But because I believe in building a record while we are still here to shape it.

Everybody wants to be a showgirl.
But preservation?
Credit?
Infrastructure?
Economic sustainability?
That takes work.
And this exhibition is doing that work - right now.“
