Description

Specialties

Burlesque performances true to the golden era of high glamour and spectacle with a modern, clever, and sensual panache. This exclusive boutique troupe features some of the rarest talent in Texas. The performers are classically trained dancers, vocalists and actors who can connect with an audience from the instant they step onstage. The Jigglewatts brand of burlesque is upbeat, cheeky, clever, elegant and sexy all at the same time, inviting audiences of both men and women to join in the fun.

Female owned and operated since 2006, they produce regular shows in Austin and across the world.

History

Established in 2006.

The founding members of The Jigglewatts met on the set of a zombie movie (hey, this is Austin!) and one day discovered they all had the same dreams of performing burlesque– in fact, they had all been following its revival for several years. A brilliant, crazy idea was born and they got to work on costumes and choreography. The Jigglewatts opened their first show that summer at The Velvet Spade to a sold out house and haven’t stopped since.

Now stronger than ever and with over 25 titles collectively, including Hot Rods & Heels «Troupe of the Year,» and «Performer of the Year,» Texas Burlesque Fest «Audience Choice Award,» «Best Costume,» and «Most Original,» and New Orleans Burlesque Fest «Queen of Burlesque,» and Burlesque Hall of Fame «Best Debut» and «Most Classic,» this resplendent troupe is the most awarded in the world.
