"I'm over the moon about the success of the new show and the way we've been embraced in cities the tour has never traveled to before. I've been adding new elements to the show, and this time, it's an opulent new version of my champagne glass act. I worked with my best friend and longtime collaborator Catherine D'Lish to create a decadent and distinctively designed champagne coupe of gilded gold, crystallized with astonishing amounts of pavé Swarovski crystal. I feel very inspired in this moment in time when burlesque is truly being recognized, and I'm pleased to bring together this show stopping cast for an unforgettable night. "

The decadent spectacle treats audiences to four of Von Teese's most exhilarating performances, including a brand new version of her iconic "Martini Glass" routine which features a beautiful new baroque style gilded champagne glass, crystallized from top to bottom with over 150,000 Swarovski crystals. Each show throughout the tour will showcase the stunning visuals of the exclusive acts that have made Von Teese the consummate performer in modern burlesque, captivating the imagination and transporting audiences worldwide.

The Art of the Teese tour brings new acts never before seen in the United States including "Lazy," an act only ever performed at The Crazy Horse Paris (including new costuming from British designer Jenny Packham), an all-new ballet-themed act "Swan Lake Stripteese," plus a revitalization of her show-stopping Rhinestone Cowgirl Act with her sexy male "Vontourage."

The "Burlesque Superheroine" (Vanity Fair) will be joined on stage by an eclectic supporting cast of today's brightest stars of Burlesque, with burlesque fan favorite Dirty Martini tassel-twirling while riding Dita's famous Swarovski Crystallized Carousel Horse and burlesque star Ginger Valentine performing with one of Dita's most beloved signature acts, "My Heart Belongs to Daddy" ,which features Dita's signature giant red filigree heart prop. Jett Adore brings the house down with his Zorro act that Dita calls "...the best boylesque act ever created!", and Australian import Zelia Rose captivates the audiences with her modern Josephine Baker tribute. Rupaul's Drag Race Season 7 winner Violet Chachki brings the house down with her stunning Art Deco Striptease, and Dita's Vontourage appears throughout the 2 hour show with numbers that showcase their magnificent dance talent. The evening is hosted by comedian and singer Jonny McGovern, creator of the popular YouTube channel "Hey Qween!"
