Drawn to the shadows between starlight and the breaking sun, Seraphina Syren was born with a hunger to create and a fascination for the exquisite details others often miss. A wandering enchantress who’s lifetime spent in dance & theatre have became the spellwork behind this syren's stagecraft, she has woven her art across the map, leaving glittering echoes in every city she's called home. Now her journeys have led her to the far regions of the mountains of her youth where myth still lingers in the woods and a dangerous song lures you to the edge of jagged coastline.

In 2018 Syren conjured Black Garter Revue in Asheville, NC  where she seduced sold-out crowds from the southern highlands to the foothills below. Now based out of Belfast, ME Syren continues to weave her magic for packed houses along  New England’s foggy coast line. Ever drawn to the strange, the sensual, and the sublime, Syren evokes worlds where the bizarre is beautiful and the stage becomes a portal. With a devotion to unearthing hidden gems and giving voice to otherworldly storytellers, Syren invites you into her orbit—where mystery reigns and glamour is laced with danger.

Boo Darling is no stranger to the stage! Her many adventures throughout the East Coast and Texas found her in numerous choirs, theater troupes, and even a few coffee shop poetry slams. While she may not currently be a choreographed performer in the spotlight, she is always waiting in the wings to cheer on the incredible talent on stage and make sure the mood is set just right between each act. When Boo Darling isn't getting fancy and lending her particular talents of sass and organized chaos as a burlesque kitten, she can be found curled up under a blanket with her favorite cat while reading the latest spicy fantasy book.

What can we say? This Mainer might not be as rugged as a lobster man, but has youth and energy to dance in their lap. This kitten might not be the main event but his claws were only clipped on one hand.

Voluptuous Vixen discovered burlesque in 2024 when attending her first local showcase and was instantly captivated by the blend of theatrical flair, playful sensuality, and uplifting camaraderie among performers. Determined to become a part of this supportive community, she volunteered as a stage kitten helping to make all the on stage & behind-the-scenes magic happen. This role has given Vixen invaluable insight into timing, choreography, and the power of subtle stagecraft for when she steps onto that stage as kitten or as a guest performer.

Vixen's mission is to inspire others—especially curvy and plus-size folks—to embrace their bodies and unleash their inner sparkle reminding others that burlesque is more than striptease; it’s an empowering art form that champions self-expression, self confidence and body positivity.

Born in Los Angeles, Oblivion Rose is no angel…well maybe a fallen one. This deviously wicked witch enjoys putting her audience under her spell. With a love of theatre from a drama and singing background, she uses her skills to craft a sensual tale. Will you be able to look away? We sure don’t want to.

Rising from her castle's crypt--nestled in the coastal woods of Maine--Jenni Darkbloom is here to suck your tips, respectfully.

She's a founder of the ✨Big Sparkles Gang✨, and has a love of all things ruffled. In 2023, Jenni plunged into the dark arts of the burlesque world by becoming an overly prepared kitten.
