The Hollywood Burlesque Festival is back in 2023
We are revealing all kinds of exciting tid bits!
The Hollywood Burlesque Festival is under new management. Festival Creator Lili VonSchtuup has decided to hand over the torch to veteran LA producer & performer Miss Spent Youth. We are excited to continue to grow the festival, while also focusing on celebrating the past and present of burlesque in Los Angeles!
We’ve partnered with Frogtown Brewery and The Vermont Hollywood to bring you an entirely new festival experience. Watch the Gala Showcases and Competition at the new Vermont Hollywood. With a gorgeous Art Deco interior, fantastic stage views and state of the art lighting and sound, you’re in for a big treat! Relax Sunday with our brunch show and closing party at the Frogtown Beer Garden. We are adding new titles and revamping the old ones for a fresh new festival!
When I launched the Hollywood Burlesque Festival our community had exploded and I felt we could be a great host to an international community. Hollywood has a rich history in burlesque and I wanted to share that, I’m proud of the international talent and the locals who came together to make that first festival happen. As we head into our 10th year handing the clipboard and vision to Miss Spent Youth is perfect. I can’t imagine a more qualified and talented individual to take this festival to its next level. I am excited to see what she does and I’ll be in the audience cheering.
