The Toronto Burlesque Festival hit town this past weekend and I was absolutely enveloped by it! I LOVE the growing popularity of Burlesque. Some absolutely stunning performers hit the stage -- Roxi Dlite! Miss Indigo Blue! Tigger! Cherry Typhoon! Coco Framboise! Just to name a few!
But this is "MAN'S ADVENTURE". Among the Boylesque performers were Toronto's own Patastrophic Sexapeel! Relatively new to the troupe, he's already made an impression -- on me, at least :)

And Dew Lily! Remember that name because Dew is gonna explode in the Burlesque scene. He's already a favourite in T.O. The mere mention of his name drives the crowd into a frenzy.

I'll be drawing the boys as I go through my photos from the weekend! I've got to draw Mahogany Storm and Wrong Note Rusty! Two more of Toronto's favourite Boylesquers!
