About the performers:

Swami Bill and his Old Tyme Flea Circus is a mysterious combination of entertainment - expect a Flea Circus, Magic, Fortunes Told, Souls Weighed and more... all for your entertainment! Then catch Ginger Snap, the Electric Girl, who shocks and amazes with her uncanny ability to withstand over 500,000 volts of electricity. You'll be shocked and amazed as Shea Freelove shows his skill on a bed of sharp nails and you'll laugh along with Max Mago and his Medicine Show Snake Oil Pitch. Then wrap it all up with burlesque from Denver's own Vivenne VaVoom. A versatile vixen of the classic ecdysiasts art, Vivienne VaVoom can generally be found bumping and grinding a mile high in her hometown of Denver. Known for her "Timeless Tease" style, this classic coquette has performed around the country and the world, including Miss Exotic World, Tease-O-Rama, New York Burlesque Fest, the Helsinki Burlesque Fest and Miss Burlesque New Zealand.
