If I had a dollar for every time someone said to me “Oh I love burlesque because its classy,” I would be rich! What many people don’t realize is that many of your favorite burlesque performers also cross over into the world of club dancing. I mean, why not? Burlesque is an expensive art form that is constantly fluctuating in its profitability. Club dancing allows for the financial freedom and flexibility for many burlesque performers to be able to invest in their costumes, marketing, productions, and travel expenses. The strip clubs evolved from the burlesque clubs that got shut down in 50s. Stages got smaller, live bands were replaced with DJs, costumes became bikinis, and a sexual revolution began. This is believed to be how strip clubs came to be in America.
