BurLEX is proud to present the first Melanin Out Loud! — a radiant, revolutionary evening amplifying the brilliance of non-white performers, tech, and production crew. This night is more than a showcase — it's a spotlight and a celebration of every shade, shape, and story that dares to burn bright.

From sultry to surreal, defiant to divine, this all-BIPOC lineup brings beauty, power, and pleasure to the spotlight—center stage, where it’s always belonged.

THIS EVENT IS LIMITED CAPACITY.

Come early. Stay loud.

OUR MISSION:Bringing our community together on a local & regional level through burlesque & adjacent art forms.

To teach empowerment, intentionality, and consent to our students, audiences, and local community through partnerships that communicate this tone.

Creating bonds and pathways between the region to elevate the art of burlesque and support our regional established groups and performers.
