"Chasing the Sun"

ÆRA is going west to the city of Los Angeles, trying to put off the passing of another day by chasing the sun.
You know that moment before you realize this is the is the best party you've ever been to, or just before you start to pull away from a kiss, when everything is perfect and you're not thinking, you are just in it?
That is what we want to create. That's where we want to be all the time but everything else gets in the way.
So maybe, when we go to this land of dreams, this place where the sun sets last, we will be able to capture this moment, even if its only for that short time that we are on stage.

Polesque is a combination of burlesque performances and a pole dancing competition. Its first ever time across the Mississippi, Polesque brings its blend of cutting edge burlesque and competitive pole dancing to Los Angeles. Straddling the line between art and spectacle, risque and risky, Polesque is not to be missed. As always there will be surprise performances from some of the world’s best in burlesque. This is the fifth installment of Polesque, past competitors include Michelle Stanek, Steven Retchless, Tracee Kafer, and "The Diva" Roz. Who will compete from the amazing community of pole dancers on the other side of this great land?
