LGBTease is a Houston-based queerlesque & femme pop revue dedicated to uplifting and celebrating queer artists and performers in the fourth-largest city in the U.S. who practice the erotic art of the tease. Our show home is Pearl Bar, Houston’s only lesbian bar since its founding in 2013. LGBTease aims to provide a safe performance space for burlesque artists of all genders to develop their stagecraft and erotic practices in a safe space that subverts the male gaze, challenges euro-centric and mainstream standards of desirability, and empowers them to embody our shared values of collaboration, inclusion and love.
