Neo-Burlesque

Striptease as Transformation

Beschreibung

Offers an inside look at the history, culture, and philosophy of New York's neo-burlesque scene. Revealing how twenty-first century neo-burlesque is in constant dialogue with the classic burlesque of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Lynn Sally considers how today's performers use camp to comment on preconceived notions of femininity.
