UPCOMING SHOWS
BURLESK BELOW
Saturday September 20th DTLA
An underground ritual of Burlesque, Drag, and Cabaret for those who dare to defy the ordinary
Hidden inside the moody, speakeasy-style venue Stowaway, this curated revue is a night of bold storytelling, sensuality, and radical self-expression.
Burlesk Below isn’t just a show — it’s a gathering of mischief-makers, art rebels, and glamour witches beneath the streets of Downtown L.A.
We center artistry that challenges the mainstream — performances born from lived experience, queerness, and cultural lineages often left in the shadows. Every act is a spell of subversion, every moment a reclamation of power and pleasure.
