the minstrel shows that were specifically an american kind of edition the idea of um the the vaudeville the comedic because she's also very much she's very funny right so so keeping that aspect of burlesque whereas i think what really differs with the parisian tradition of say a folie berger
is that it was never about the, initially, the tees or about the striptease more than that.
It's about glamour and this like fashion and showcasing and the costumes are so extraordinary and the presence of this like aestheticism of this body here.
That's paramount in the French tradition, whereas the American, it gets that lowbrow.
It gets that more subversive thing in there.
Yeah.
independently of one another that's a funny act as well like you know like moving your boobs in different directions and she made loads of money doing that oh so much money I mean and again to bring back the economics of all right it's a labor of the body and so you're using it and you're you're benefiting from that yeah and
Anne Corio, who is just another fundamental matriarch of aesthetic or classic burlesque, she referred to Fidel as... She said when she would walk across the stage, she looked like a twin-engine bomber because she could make those tassels move like propellers, which is such a beautiful image.

It corresponds with there are all these censorship rules that get developed.
And that starts in the 1870s if we're focusing on the United States.
In New York City around Anthony Comstock, the like notorious Comstock, right?
You're like, you're not coming anywhere.
And so in 1872, he forms this New York Society for the Suppression of Vice.
And he starts to go after everything.
Amy Warbell has a fantastic book that just covers all of this history.
Right.
He's like, you deserve to.
Oh, yeah.
And that's not my fault.
