2020 Burlesque Performers
Isabella Blackat was born in Italy. At the end of 2014 she discovered the art of burlesque, that immediately became a subject of researches and studies. Over the years she has joined many workshops held by internationally renowned artists. She performed at the Salone Margherita, one of the most important Italian theaters. She took part in several national festivals, including the highly prestigious Caput Mundi International Burlesque Award. Beautiful and seductive, with Mediterranean colors. Her style is at the same time sensual, sophisticated, romantic and ironic.Her performances take us back in time, preserving the inevitable erotic charm of Fellini’s women, with sinuous and soft curves. So attractive that she becomes a “sex symbol” between followers: a predominantly female audience, not only virtual, to whom “teaches” love and dedication.
Following this mood she published her book in 2018, ISABELLA BLACKAT, in which she tells in autobiographical form the story of a young Sicilian woman who discovers the world of burlesque as a form of ironic and sensual recognition of her inalienable identity. The spontaneous desire is to convey a message: to face events of life in the name of positivity, between commitment and grace, strength and beauty, in a dualism of joy and rationality.
In 2019 she has broken into the European scene performing in France in the first edition of the Festival Rétro-Tease Lyon and in Scotland in the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the greatest platform for creative freedom in the world. During the same year, she won the Burlesque Festival Party held in Cantù. 2020 starts fabulous; she has been on tour since January performing in New York, Vermont, Spain, Italy, UK, France and more. Enchanted by this world, she strongly believes that: “there are different ways to express ourselves, our body seems to be a painter’s palette and the colors used on our skin become clothes sewn on to paint the many masks we can wear.”
