At the Asian Burlesque Festival, Everyone Does Whatever the Fuck They Want

The 14th Annual NYC Asian Burlesque Festival wasn't about stereotypes, representation, or proving anything to anyone. It was about giving Asian performers the freedom to be funny, glamorous, sexy, strange, theatrical, and entirely themselves. Across two packed nights at Le Poisson Rouge, the result was a celebration of burlesque, nightlife, and creative freedom at its best.
