Dear Constant Reader,
It’s Friday! Tomorrow The BeauTease are premiering our latest virtual show, L.D.R.: Love in the Time of Corona! Join us at 8pm for a watch party.
It’s our first none-iversary! March 8, 2020 was the last time BeauTease Burlesque was seen live in public. We’ve had a year of quarantine and all the isolation, inconvenience, and weird living that goes with it. Some folks haven’t seen their special someone in months; some have been trapped in house with their sweetie and would love a day of solitude. Fortunately, you can always reach out to The Nightfly — the lonely-hearts DJ on WLDR — and tell him all your troubles… Love in the Time of Corona features some fabulous new acts from your favorite BeauTease, plus cameos from special guests like Lili VonSchtupp, The Guilted Lilly, Satine S’Allumer, Willy Barrett, and Jeannie Martini!
Now, here’s your tip!
Be careful, your face could freeze like that!
When rehearsing, you’re building up your muscle memory. Your face has muscles too. I know it’s so easy to just focus on what your body is doing while you’re learning without thinking about your facial expressions. I do it too. The danger is training your face to fall into concentration mode while performing instead of whatever emotion you want to convey. So rehearse with your face as well as the rest of your body.
