Hello :)
A very close friend of mine
endearingly refers to me as
'Miss Thing'.
I think she just about nailed it.
About me
Originally, I entered the world of SecondLife to build and use my artistic skills. I come from a RL background of film and theatre, as well as having a passion for computer graphics, and am highly skilled with Photoshop. I love the 3 dimentional environment of SL and realizing the potentials, I learned to build and script. I have a realistic style to my Secondlife builds, and i do contract projects inworld.
I enjoy retro nostalgia and have created a number of products within the Secondlife world that seem to be quite popular. The community of DecoRetropia, where the original Ellie's club is, was painstakingly built by myself over a year ago to provide a small journey into the nostalgic 1950s.
Some of my products
In building my 'retro oasis' , I had the desire to include a club type of venue. My partner Ellie, who also is a huge fan of retro, suggested a burlesque house. We searched through the Grid and found very little in the way of burlesque. The few clubs that existed offered live shows, and we came up with our own plan of attack to what we wanted to see in burlesque entertainment. We opened Ellie's Burlesque House in March of 2009, and it soon became a unique and successful enterprise and we quickly realized we needed more space. E & S Burlesque Factory was born in August as a larger and more 'Broadway' style of show featuring selected dancers from Ellie's. It too has become one of Secondlife's most popular burlesque entertainment venues. With the help of some wonderful people, we do weekly shows at the
small club where I dance, stage manage and DJ the music, and on Saturdays, Ellie joins us at the Factory where we do what has been refered to as the 'Main Event' in SL burlesqe. With all of this, we have been fortunate enough to have met some of the most amazing people from around the world who share in the love of Burlesque. We created the name 'Virtual Burlesque', developed a web site, our own social network and produced a few videos. We also do private bookings and events and frequently contribute our talents to a sister venue created by one of our most supportive friends Miss Chryblnd Scribe, the Beautiful Freaks Burlesque Circus.

I have a huge appetite for music, and an extensive collection, so I not only provide the music for the shows at Ellie's and the Factory, I frequently spin tunes for friends and fans at various venues across the grid. I'm familiar with a large numer of styles spanning the 30s to the present and can provide my own music stream.
