Again, Viva Valezz! has impressed me.  Her inclusive mission and The Voyeur’s mission is one in the same.  We believe that all are beautiful and an event like Fierce! is one step closer to boosting the mainstream media, fashion industry, and entertainment business in sharing this vision.  

The Festival Goals are as follows: 

Provide a forum to highlight queer burlesque performance of all styles. 

Provide an environment for queer burlesque performers to network with other queers and allies, and nurture a sense of community among us. 

Provide an economically accessible space to ensure the participation of limited income queer burlesque performers which may include scholarship opportunities. 

Offer burlesque technique workshops, panels and skill sharing, though instruction may also include classes on identity, activism, health and sustainability, as a way of strengthening individuals’ skills and the queer burlesque community. 

Donate funds to one local and one national queer-focused organization, non-profit, or arts endeavor.

The spicy and sweet
 Viva Valezz!
