10 YEARS! It’s been 10 years that I founded the Montreal Burlesque Festival
It is an accomplishment in itself.
At a time when Montreal had forgot this art form, it was quite a journey to explain what burlesque was to get people (mainstream) to buy tickets to the shows!
The biggest names of the industry graced the stage. Lots of montreal artistes started at the festival (they will never say it, but i have pics! Lol!)
And i am so proud to be part of this art, to push it as it is the 1st one, to have poured myself heart and soul to this business i created for myself but also for others.
My family helped me, my team who i also consider family is been with me from the start (i am very loyal) countless beautiful ladies which i transformed in pretty hostesses and showgirls participated and were essential to the guests experience.
I am so grateful. This was a business education as well. I learned a lot. Got abused to no end, until i learned.
Almost lost it all, but hanged on.
And was eating toast with cheese wiz for dinner at time as i went not broke, more than broke. No one sees the story behind the feathers. And that’s the way it is suppose to be. I love you all, l love my patrons, i love the artists, i love the haters, i love my family, i love my team.
I learned from all of you. I learned who you really are.
NOW LETS ROCK OUR 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!!
