It’s Thursday and yes you’re seeing double! We have not one duet, but two!!!! Our first duet spotlight goes to Kit Valentine and Dante Dagger !!!

Kit Valentine is a Mid Atlantic performer ready to st******se his way into your heart. He is glamorous and amorous. He is committed to harnessing every ounce of his hubris to enchant you into adoration. He enjoys make up, crowns, and long walks on the stage. Kit loves his audience, but loves them more if they use his favorite word: Moist.

Dante Dagger is the embodiment of opossum energy; slender, nocturnal, and often hanging around dumpsters, both literal and metaphorical. Also giving the loyal golden retriever of his burlesque family. He brings energy to the stage that audiences have described as "this slaps”.”

Don’t miss this dose of double trouble this Saturday at Otakon on the main stage after the masquerade!!!!

Here is a late night delight, back on the Otakon stage is Delilah Dentata!

Delilah Dentata is a multiple-award-winning burlesque and variety performer, host, and producer based in Washington, DC. This Brazilian Bombshell has been described as “strangely sexy”, “upsettingly committed to the bit”, and, in one instance, “a choice.” Legit.

A self-proclaimed icon (it’s called manifesting, sweaty), Delilah has brought her brand of “what even IS this” to shows all over the East Coast and Midwest, including at Astro Pop Events’ Elvis’ Birthday Fight Club, TBD Immersive, Otakon, Super Art Fight, Dr. Sketchy’s, and Naked Girls Reading, among others. When she’s not gallivanting about the stage, she’s sharing her love of fun, offbeat burlesque and variety as the co-producer of DMVariety’s “Yolks on You” brunch and assorted Beaver and Buttstuff joints, including the “Now That’s What I Call Burlesque” Y2K tribute shows, as well as “Noble Asses: A Burlesque and Variety Tribute to the Periodic Table” which despite all odds, somehow manages to be educational.

Delilah Dentata: DON'T LOOK AT HER!!!! SHE'S TOO POWERFUL!!!!!!!!
