$7 cover (added to tab). Two item minimum for table/piano seating.

Starting in Pittsburgh, she’s been darkening doorsteps and stages since 2014. Her performances range from classically glamorous, unsettling and haunting, all the way to absurdist tributes to pop culture icons. Her inspirations include high fashion, psychological thrillers, and pre-code Hollywood.

With a background in special effects makeup, costume design, and prop building, she strives to create art with high production value and a solid story arc. Currently residing in Nashville, Tennessee, she spends her days working at an animatronics and puppet workshop. Her nights usually include working on costume and makeup commissions, and taking dance classes with Delinquent Debutantes: Nashville’s only burlesque finishing school.

She’s stripped, sung, and played with the southern branches of City Winery Cabaret, Pittsburgh based sideshow troupe Kabarett Vulgare, Velvetina Taylor’s Blue Moon Revue in Memphis, Truvy Trollop’s Rhinestone Cabaret, Delinquent Debutantes, Dirty Nerdy Burlesque, Skull’s Rainbow Room in Historic Printer’s Alley, Nudie’s Honky Tonk on Broadway, and Body by Cheese, Whiskey by Corsair. She also co-produces The Brewlesque Show and the Nashville branch of Dr. Sketchy’s.

Gidget saw her first burlesque show at the famous Belcourt Theater in Nashville, TN.  She began taking classes at Delinquent Debutantes, Nashville’s only burlesque finishing school, in November 2014. Following her debut performance in July 2015, she has performed in productions all over Nashville.  

Gidget produces her own quarterly revue, the Brewlesque Show, at the Corsair Distillery Taproom.  She also produces private burlesque events upon request.  She is a traveling showgirl, featuring in productions and burlesque festivals across the country.  She is a member of the Rainbow Room Revue, performing at Skull’s Rainbow Room.  She is the volunteer coordinator for the annual Nashville Burlesque Festival.  

Mixing classic bump-and-grind with a dash of metal, nerd, and neo, and a nerd at all times, she is the Scientifically Sinful Ms. Gidget Bardot!
