Drop-InAbout the Teacher - Devora Darling
Devora discovered her love for burlesque after her first performance in 2010 - in the Boston Babydolls' "French Kiss". She became a devoted troupe member soon after, as well as an enthusiastic teacher at The Boston Academy of Burlesque Education (B.A.B.E.). Her favorite elements of burlesque include covering herself (and everyone else) in glitter, incorporating balletic movements, and performing while wearing a mask and/or a toasty warm costume. Website
