About me: We are the one and only, lovely, luscious, ripe and ready PEACH TARTES, New York City's juiciest burlesque troupe! Check out our calendar to see where we're mixing up our classic burlyQ style with 21st Century sass.
The Peach Tartes are Scarlet O*Gasm, Madame Rosebud, Veruca Honeyscotch, and Rita Menweep—a band of show women committed to challenging what you think about burlesque, what you know about women and what you expect from entertainment. They collaboratively shake, shimmy and twirl together choreography, storytelling, comedy, emotion, darkness and fire to create innovative and unforgettable events!
Since debuting at The World Famous *BOB*'s "New Revue" in September ‘06, The Peach Tartes have brought their spectacle of guts and glitter to stages all over NYC and beyond... The Slipper Room, The Cutting Room, Rififi, 200 Orchard, Julep, Galapagos, The Sage Theater, The Lakeshore Theater (Chicago), The Palace of Wonders (D.C.), Don Hill’s, “Vaudeville Nouveau”, The Knitting Factory, Coney Island’s Sideshow by the Seashore, Madame X, “Starshine”, “This or That”, The Spiegeltent, the P.I.T., Corio, The Green Room, Under St. Marks, The Haunt (Ithaca, NY), and on and on...

Our performance style is best described as a racket of arresting visuals and we are kinky for theatricality. Our show involves cheeky and intricately choreographed experiences that showcase each individual’s strengths, ability to act, perform, and dance. Our naturally quirky and colorful personalities blend together deliciously to create one succulent, dynamic, and utterly irresistible show where the characters go on a journey and end up exposed. (See our blogs and slideshows for a description of different shows we can bring to a stage near you.) We inspire people to cast off their inhibitions, take the stick-pony by the reigns and RIDE IT!

Hiya Tartes! We've got a show coming up, and it's looking to be FAB! We'd be honored to have you talented ladies in attendance and fall into comatose states by the massive doses of hula hoop funk and glam rock madness.
God damn, ladies. You were stunning this weekend. Makes me want to go pick up a gallon of milk and stop by the bakery. Of course, I doubt it will compare... Katrina
Tartes, you rocked it last night with every ounce of your god-given juicyness! You are an incredible group of women with talents that blow the mind - I am honored to have been a tartlette for the ringing success that was Alice in Coney'land!
Hey ladies! Was nice to see you too at MEW. If you find yourselves with the urge to go west in Feb, don't forget we have the Vancouver International Burlesque Festival!
