This is the one I've been worrying about....

I have another show tomorrow, in Birmingham, it's Felicia (who helped me book my very first show!) Noir's Cosplay Burlesque show in West Brom, and it's a big deal.
You may wonder why this one is any more a big deal than any other.. Well, I'll tell you...

As I mentioned, it was Felicia who I approached, back in April, via the Ministry of Burlesque, about my very first show. And the show I asked her about was this one! Yep, that is a long time to be planning a show!! There's reason to be fearful #1.

#2 Felicia didn't book me for this show (Robin of Black Country Burlesque did later on), but she did point me to BCB's newbie shows, which became my actual first show back in June. Which kinda makes her my Burlesque Fairy Godmother, she gave me a big leg up, whether she knows it or not.

#3 Referring back to point 1, Felicia has put some seriously hard work into this show, and has been uber excited about it for months. Originally I was intending to do a Tank Girl act, but I just couldn't work in out the way I wanted so I ditched it and decided to do the Tru-Blood act. Now, after the success and positive feedback from Hard Hearted Hannah's first outing at the Canary Cage I have some confidence in the act, however, as it's a Cosplay show (with most acts being comic book based), I am worried it's gonna stick out a little. Yes.. I'm scared my act will be the crap one. Which leads me to reason #4, it's at The Public in West Brom... it's a fucking great massive theatre!!! Eeeeeeeeek!

Anyway.. I'll update after the show.. Gulp. In the meantime, here's a preliminary pic from the Zak Tyler Liverpool shoot... Cool huh?! :)
