Red Velvet Burlesque Show, a nationwide performance venue founded during the height of the pandemic, continues to make a name for itself across the country with engaging burlesque and variety shows that resonate with the audience, captivating viewers and keeping them on the edge of their seats. Providing the audience with truly magical experiences is a top priority, which is one of the many reasons the founders of this top-rated, majorly successful burlesque company handpicks talented performers who are sure to leave the audience in awe.


While initially focused in the beautiful, bustling city of New York, the demand for this incredible, one-of-a-kind experience continued to grow, causing the Red Velvet Burlesque Show to become one of the fastest-growing entertainment organizations in the country. Word-of-mouth rave reviews spread like wildfire, enabling the company to grow and expand at such a rapid pace, blossoming into the major success it has become.


The Start of an Exciting, Truly Distinctive Experience for All


Although burlesque dates back to the late 1800s, the dancers' fascinating performances and their ability to connect with the audience through movements have helped the Red Velvet Burlesque Show become a household name. It wouldn't take long for the company to begin hosting weekly shows consisting of some of the most entertaining and exotic performances that left viewers feeling both entertained and inspired. The combination of energetic performers completing modern choreography combined with traditional burlesque routines to offer a fresh and innovative take on the classic dance style quickly set these shows apart from the rest.


In a world full of people with a genuine passion for dance and burlesque in general, it's no surprise that love for the Red Velvet Burlesque Show would continue to spread from one city to the next. And while most are excited about having the opportunity to sit in the audience and watch a genuinely remarkable burlesque performance like nothing they've viewed before, others decided to allow feelings of envy to take over, resorting to slander in the form of false allegations and manipulation tactics.


Some people doubted the organization's ability to expand beyond its roots in New York City, but they were surely mistaken. Sadly, because the competition couldn't quite keep up nor put their fingers on what made Red Velvet Burlesque Show such an incredible experience compared to what they were offering, they decided to start spreading lies to the public. Competitors taking a more traditional approach to burlesque didn't necessarily like the idea of something new and exciting taking over and causing them to lose out on money. Instead of taking the high road and working on perfecting their craft, they spent most of their time spreading misinformation to the public in an attempt to discredit the Red Velvet Burlesque Show.

Out of Control Jealousy: The Competition Takes an Ugly Turn


Although there's nothing wrong with a bit of competition here and there, the problem lies in making up false allegations in an attempt to bring another organization down. Everyone from the Red Velvet Burlesque Show, including its founders and many talented performers, felt nothing but hurt and disappointment at the actions of the competition, who've gone as far as getting online to spread misinformation on social media platforms, such as TikTok and Instagram.


Rather than learning more about these innovative burlesque performances and how they're touching the lives of many through the art of dance, they've decided to give the organization the cold shoulder while keeping up with the social media slander. Some have gone as far as encouraging unwarranted attacks, creating lies and accusations against performers, none of which are true or hold any merit.


The entertainment industry is incredibly competitive. Some may even say it's cutthroat. And although it's normal for people to experience slight feelings of jealousy when they see the competition doing better than them, stooping as low as making up lies can quickly destroy everything people have worked hard to build from the ground up. Because the Red Velvet Burlesque Show has become immensely successful in such a short period, people are taking notice, and only some are happy with it. Of course, critics will always exist and have something to say. However, there's a significant difference between a critical response and a malicious one involving the act of spreading false rumors and personally attacking performers.


Moving Past the Negativity: Nothing But Onward and Upward From Here


Despite dealing with the stress of having jealous individuals spreading false rumors and instigating personal attacks against those involved in burlesque performances with the Red Velvet Burlesque Show, the organization aims to move past the negativity while focusing on the good instead of paying mind to the bad.


Maintaining an optimistic mindset, the organization's founders and performers want to make it known that the unsubstantiated claims against them are beneath them and are no longer worth any additional response. Anyone can log into a social media account from their phone or computer and decide they want to attempt to tear a reputable and trustworthy business down because they're jealous of its success. But paying mind to those aiming to discredit such a wonderful organization that hopes to keep the passion for burlesque alive for years to come simply isn't worth it. While the allegations may have initially caused a bit of a stir, making some second guess purchasing their tickets, those who've experienced the Red Velvet Burlesque Show for themselves have nothing but positive things to say about the experience.


The people who’ve attempted to take the Red Velvet Burlesque Show down could be disgruntled performers who didn't make the cut for the final performance crew, or they might be other burlesque companies experiencing jealousy over the company's success. No matter who they are, their words mean nothing and are only a failed attempt at bringing a thriving company down. However, there's a reason the organization has had such tremendous success over the past two years. Experience what makes the Red Velvet Burlesque Show so unique and enjoyable by attending one of the shows for yourself to experience the magic live in action. You won't be disappointed!
