Opening Night Party
Please note: Right now, this event is for performers who have been cast for the weekend and staff only. Deacon Giles can only accomodarte a limited number of people. Once we have the an idea of how many people can attend, we will be accepting RSVPs from non-performers with Whole Shebang and Socialite passes.
Welcome to Salem!
We wanted to do something a little extra extra for all the folks who do so much to make the weekend happen. So we talked our good friends at Deacon Giles Speakeasy Lab into letting us take over their joint for the night. We'll provide the entertainment and some snacks and Deacon Giles will be serving some of their famous craft cocktails! Take home a bottle or three as a souvenir of The Great Burlesque Exposition!
The Speakeasy Lab is about a 10 minute walk from Old Town Hall.

Devastasia
A lover all things dark, mysterious, strange and unusual. A promoter of feminine prowess and attracted to all things shiny. Burlesque was a natural draw for her, and she hopes to share this love with the world...one clothing removal at a time.
Jeannie Martini
Burlesque’s Colorful Cocktail
A performer all her life (on stage and off) Jeannie has been gracing the burlesque stage since 2015. Happy that she found a way to manifest her exhibitionist fantasies without getting arrested, Jeannie will bring a smile to your face with her witty and enticing style. Her inspiration comes from old Hollywood glamour, Carol Burnett and raunchy Harold Robbins books she secretly read as an impressionable youngster.
Jeannie has performed in many shows in the Boston area and numerous stages on the left coast. You can catch her every month in Boston’s monthly bad-ass burlesque show and punk rock dance party, “Punk Rockin’ and Pastie Poppin’”.
