I was on 3rd, but actually ended up being 2nd as the first act didn't turn up! I didn't win the competition, but I really couldn't have asked for a better night.
My act went without a hitch, my corset came undone, my pasties stayed put (more than can be said for some acts...!) and my trousers fell down! I did find myself somewhat too naked too soon, as expected though, but all that practise paid off as I knew my song so well I knew how much time I had to 'fill' till the finale.
The audience laughed when they were supposed to, mostly, whooped when clothing was removed and clapped at the end... what more can a gal ask for!?
The best part of the night though was the support from my friends, and their friends! No less than 12 of them turned out to witness my debut and all of them (if their compliments were to be believed!) truly enjoyed the show. Two of my friends were even inspired to give burlesque a go themselves!
Yay! A successful first show indeed! Now... to start planning the next one... : )
