Hattiesburlesque was born out of a friendship forged years ago between between artist and soulful songstress, Abigail Lenz Allen, and dance coach and choreographer, Rebecca Chandler. Upon meeting, they instantly learned that they shared a love of live music, live dance performance, musical theater, and the local downtown scene. Hattiesburlesque is a high-energy, burlesque inspired musical and dance review. While the performance is very tasteful and humorous, it is a nod to burlesque, and therefore, an adult-themed show.
