Recently s/he acted in, co-wrote and co-produced Waxie Moon in Fallen Jewel (directed by Wes Hurley).
Ladies and Gentlemen, Waxie Moon is a Seattle Burlesque Icon. S/he is a subject of man crushes by nearly ever straight male burlesque fan I know! He is a role model to the "boylesque" community, myself included! She is fierce... and I don't use that term lightly! I cannot express how excited I am to have Waxie Moon rejoin the cast of Boys! Bois! Boyz! after performing in our last show last May, or my joy at that once more the boyz will "Cum Together" around/over/on/etc. this Boylesque Phenomenon!
Make sure to get you tickets folks, because this show will be awesome!
Loves!
