FAQ

Welcome to the dazzling world of Angel Harts Revue! Whether you're new to burlesque or a longtime lover of the tease, we've got answers to your burning questions.

What is burlesque, anyway? 

Burlesque is a bold and beautiful art form that combines dance, striptease, comedy, and theatrical flair. It celebrates self-expression, body positivity, and a whole lot of glamour. Think sass, not crass—though we’re not afraid to get a little cheeky! 

Who are your performers? 

Our troupe features a radiant lineup of dancers with backgrounds of all different styles, from ballet to belly dance. Each brings their own unique flair, from classic striptease to neo-burlesque, pole dance, and beyond! Head on over to Meet the Troupe to learn more. 😘

Where can I see you perform live? 

You can find us twirling, teasing, and tantalizing at venues all throughout central Pennsylvania. Head to our Upcoming Shows page for the latest dates, locations, and ticket info.

What level of nudity can be expected at your shows?

Performers often strip down to pasties and panties, but full nudity is never part of our shows. Each act varies in style and tone—some are sultry, some are silly, some are more about dance or storytelling than revealing skin—but all are performed with intention, creativity, and consent. If you're new to burlesque, expect a fun, body-positive experience that celebrates sensuality without crossing into explicit nudity.

Are your shows 18+ or 21+? 

Most of our shows are held in 21+ venues, such as bars or clubs. Be sure to check each show's venue details for age requirements before purchasing tickets. 

Do your performers interact with the audience? 

Definitely! We love engaging with the crowd—particularly the front rows. Interaction can range from a flirty glance or fingernail carress to a performer making themselves comfortable right in your lap. Always with consent, of course! 

How do I communicate that I would rather not be touched? 

Easy—just a simple shake of the head, a hand gesture, or crossing your wrists together is more than enough. If you'd rather we not use your lap, just keep your legs tucked under your table. Our performers are pros at reading the room and always respect boundaries. Consent is sexy, and we’re here to make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe.

What do I receive with a VIP ticket over general admission? 

VIP tickets put you right in the heart of the action with front-row, premium seating—the best view in the house for all the glitter, glam, and tease. You’ll be up close and personal with the performers—and be the most likely to be interacted with—making your night extra unforgettable.

What is the tipping etiquette for your troupe?

Tipping is not just appreciated—it’s expected! Our performers put their hearts (and sequins) on the stage, and tips are a big part of how we’re compensated. After each act, performers will make their way through the audience, so have your tips ready and visible so we can come to you. Feel free to tuck it somewhere cheeky (with consent, of course)! There’s also a tip jar by the stage if you’d like to tip the troupe as a whole, and we offer digital options for those who prefer to tap instead of toss.

How long are your shows? Is there an intermission?

Our shows typically run 1 to 2 hours, including a 15-minute intermission to grab a drink, stretch your legs, and get ready for more glittery goodness. Timing may vary slightly depending on the lineup, but we always keep the energy going strong!

I want to join your troupe! How do I audition?

We're always excited to meet new talent! But unfortunately, our troupe slots are all currently full. Be sure to keep an eye on our social media to be the first to know when slots open up! 

Can I book your troupe for a private event? 

Absolutely! We are glad to perform at birthdays, bachelorette parties, corporate events, fundraisers, and more. Send us a message through our Contact Page to start planning a night to remember. 

Is burlesque inclusive?

Hell yes! Our troupe is committed to creating a safe, inclusive space for performers and audience members of all races, genders, body types, and identities. Burlesque is for everybody and every body.

Can I take photos or videos during a show?

To protect our performers' privacy (and keep the magic alive!), we usually don’t allow audience photography or video unless specified. But don’t worry—we usually have a house photographer and videographer on site!

What should I wear to a burlesque show?

Dress to impress or come as you are! Whether you're in jeans or sequins, we love a stylish crowd. But, the only dress code is to come ready to cheer, hoot, and have a fabulous time.
