Testimonials
“You guys were fantastic! Amazing.” – Jonny Porkpie, Burlesque Producer and Performer (New York City), 2015
“Wanted to say THANK YOU to your troupe for the AMAZING show at Chrome Pony Rally this past weekend. We got nothing but positive feedback! You all put on a great show and made our Rally very successful this year! You ROCK!!” – Kim Dodson, Chrome Pony Rally (Sierra Vista, AZ), 2015
“During a Don’t Blink rehearsal at [Fanny Galore’s] studio, another obvious difference that comes across in burlesque of today is being body positive, recognizing all body sizes as sexy, and bringing boys into the picture, like long-time troupe member Matt Finish, one of only three male “boylesque” performers in Tucson.” -Mari Herreras, Tucson Weekly Writer, 2014
“This was my first burlesque show and it was awesome! I was truly entertained and I can’t wait to see this group again. I would have felt like I got my money’s worth even if all that happened was Matt Finish chatted us up from the stage. I enjoyed the solos, but the real treat was their group number. These are classy, funny, talented people and their show is well worth the trip downtown.” -Adrienne K., Yelp Reviewer, 2014
“Don’t Blink gives burlesque a twist. The performances were a balanced mix between sexy and comical. And, it’s this fusion that makes Don’t Blink differ from other local burlesque groups.” -Mari Herreras, Tucson Weekly Writer, 2013
