Heeey, this is kinda fun!
So, I have a comment on the art of the Tease. Burlesque is ALL about the teasing! And also the funny, and the social commentary...but it starts and ends with the tease! How many ways can you tease with a corset on? ;)
it's curious, I've heard stories of women who would tease everything off but their knee- or thigh-high socks, and every single person in the room, in the end, wanted to see those socks come off! It didn't matter what else happened...if those socks didn't come off, they'd have blue balls for those legs! It's all about how you work it!
So, here's the thing...don't stick it in his face. Give it to him a little at a time. It's not like "Here's my chest!" *shove* but a little more like, "Oh, did you want that? Weeeelll...maybe, maybe not!"
Good example...my first (and only) burlesque show, I had a corset on that was zippered in the front. I'd removed my gloves, and my skirt, and was down to corset, panties, shoes and thigh-high stockings. The corset was next, so what did I do? I unzipped it, just a few inches. I looked around the audience, and then quickly zipped it back up! I did a little strutting, and then tried them again. I got a bit more of a response this time, but still zipped it back up! You should have heard the disappointed sound :P And then, the third time, I unzipped, they went crazy, and I turned around to take it off! And then quickly covered myself with a boa. Lol, whether or not they were interested in seeing my boobs, by the end, I had them wanting to see!
So, it's not really a stick-it-in-your-face thing, but more...mix it up, have fun with it, see if you can draw out some response. This sort of thing is supposed to be fun for both parties!
