Executive Producer
A classy girl with a sassy twist, Betsy Bootknocker got her start in the Denver burlesque scene 11 years ago with Ooh La La Presents. She quickly became a force to be reckoned with as she worked her way to producing her own shows(Queeriosity) and creating a sense of kinship between the burlesque and drag worlds. Betsy joined the Colorado Burlesque Festival team in 2018 and hasn’t looked back. You can see her performing in various burlesque and drag shows all over town.
