Sweet Soul Burlesque is the vibrant, critically acclaimed burlesque troupe from Vancouver, Canada. From ribbon staffs to giant venus fly traps to life-sized jack-in-the boxes, Sweet Soul strives to break the mold by creating fun, ground-breaking burlesque events that are of high production value and unequaled sassiness. The troupe works together to inspire each other and other women / lovers of women to enjoy themselves and their sexuality and to rekindle their sense of playfulness and confidence.
Sponsored by burlesque-inspired fashion design company Sweet Soul Designs , the troupe was formed in 2003 by designer Cara Milk, producer Crystal Precious and choreographer Cherry OnTop. Appearing now with the troupe are seven fabulous perfomers from heaven, including underground pin-up icon Little Miss Risk, 7-Studios creator Your Little Pony, media guru Miss Rita Star and rock n' roll darling Jailbait Jenny.
Encouraging artists of all kinds to collaborate, the troupe works with countless special guest dancers, poets, beatboxers, MC's and DJ's. Their self-run rehearsal/prop shop headquarters, DollHouse Studios, also attracts local film producers and photographers.
