ATTENTION PERFORMERS: BEFORE THE SHOW ON WEDS 5pm-6:30 SELF DEFENSE CLASS. Red Hots Burlesque is here to create safe and supported community and our community is not safe or exempt from street harassment, unwanted touching and violators.

About our featured performer:
BUNNY PISTOL
If you’ve recently found yourself dazzled by rhinestones, feathers, and skin, then you were probably watching Bunny Pistol. From slow and sensual glove removal to wild gyration, Bunny’s perfect combination of glamour and excitement will have you to the edge of your seat!
Fans flock to Bunny Pistol’s popular monthly show Barbary Coast Burlesque, established and running since 2006 and is currently at the world famous jazz venue Yoshi's, located in San Francisco's historical Fillmore district.
Bunny Pistol has been twirling tassels since 2006 and has continued to captivate audiences all over the US, England, Scotland, and France. She is a natural performer and has been studying dance since the age of 5. She was also a finalist for the Miss Viva Las Vegas Competition in 2008. She has performed in other major shows such as Viva Las Vegas, The Burlesque Hall of Fame, and Tease O' Rama.
About our debuts:
From Mojo DeVille:
I originally hail from the bowels of New York City nightlife where I trained with Juilliard alumni, worked as principal dancer and choreographer for Blade Dance Ent., attended The Hip-Hop Dance Conservatory and assisted my mentor's work efforts with the American Ballroom Theater. My family's roots exposed me to various latin dances, breakin' and social dances from many eras. Through all these spheres I became creatively enabled and eventually began working with various private, corporate and non-profit organizations. I had the privilege of working for many years on MTV, PBS, independent and mainstream American, Canadian and Bollywood artists' live stage shows and tours, as well as choreographing for a number of events. I’ve also enjoyed teaching interdisciplinary movement courses whenever requested. I am forever a student still, and many times a teacher again.
