CBF 2024 EMCEES
BELZIN WHISTLEZ
opening night | july 18,2024
Belzin Whistlez is over the moon to be back for their third year with the Colorado Burlesque Festival. This year is more sexy, more sparkly, and more fabulous than ever before, and Belzin is here to help guide you through it. With a quick wit and a bald head, they have taken their gift of gab to new heights - but more than anything, they are so incredibly grateful to this festival and the producers for continuing to provide space and a platform for visible, unabashed queer excellence. So hold onto your butts and hang on for the ride! Enjoy the festival!
Vieux Carre
VIP SHOWCASE | July 19th, 2024
Vieux Carre (She/her)– a shining star in the dazzling constellation of entertainers! With a name as enchanting as the French Quarter itself, Vieux Carre is a force to be reckoned with.
A classically trained theatre professional, Vieux Carre's performances are a sultry dip in in charm, wit, and (sheer) showmanship. From captivating audiences in New Orleans to wowing crowds in Chicago, Vieux Carre knows how to run the light!
Not only does Vieux Carre boast an impressive theatre pedigree, but she also holds the esteemed title of former Miss Modernism. And if you're a fan of the small screen, you might just recognize Vieux Carre derriere from "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel"!
So, whether you're in the mood for laughter, music, or a little bit more, look no further than Vieux Carre!
Bender Flames
CBF SPECTACULAR | JULy 20th, 2024
Denver’s biggest attention whore and Britney’s number one stan. Bender has been gracing stages and snatching spotlights since being cast as “the loud mouse” in the holiday classic The Nutcracker at age 9. While only a mouse sometimes, he is still very loud all the times. Today he can be experienced all around Denver, but mainly at The Clocktower Cabaret and Pony Up. And remember, if it’s your birthday, he has a butt for that.
