The Fine Art of the Tease!
Find all this and
more in Shimmy Magazine, a brand new
magazine celebrating the world of burlesque, vaudeville, cabaret, and
sideshow
performers.
The neo-burlesque
movement is spreading like wildfire,
and Shimmy’s right there with it, bringing you articles and interviews
with the
folks involved in keeping the business alive and thriving.
Each issue will feature profiles on
performers, spotlights on products, coverage of burlesque events, and a
tip of
the hat to those who are an inspiration to today's performers; the
legends of
burlesque. With sizing reminiscent
of men’s pocket magazines from the ‘50’s, Shimmy is the world’s biggest
little
burlesque magazine; small in size, but large in content!
Shimmy Magazine is
the brainchild of two women who met
knocking the crap out of each other on the roller derby track. Along
with their
love of skating, the two soon discovered they shared an interest in
old-time
performance. Combining their expertise in design, photography, and
journalism
with a large dose of determination, the two joined forces to express
their
appreciation of the art of performance in print. They've already been
fortunate
enough to bring onboard such esteemed contributors as photographer Don
Spiro
and special guest writers from within the burlesque community. With two issues under their belts,
Shimmy Magazine has featured such esteemed members of the burlesque
community
as: Satan’s Angel, Miss Indigo Blue, Kitten on the Keys, Miss Eva von
Slut,
Michelle L’amour, Count Smokula, Penny Starr, Jr., and has covered
major events
such as Tease-o-Rama and the Miss Exotic World Pageant.
The only burlesque
magazine in existence, Shimmy has the
corner on the market and has set an exceptionally high standard for
every
burlesque publication to follow.
Naturally, Shimmy’s main target audience is people involved in
the
burlesque and vaudeville communities; performers past and present,
fans, show
producers, costumers, and musicians.
But Shimmy also attracts people who are not directly involved
with
burlesque but are interested in retro culture; pin-up models, fans of
old time
music, vintage fashion, classic cars, and retro lifestyle in general. Anyone with an appreciation of the
class of days gone by and the sass of contemporary retro subcultures
will enjoy
reading Shimmy Magazine.
