The Organized Performer: Show-Ready On and Off Stage

Worcester Draglesque Festival presents The Organized Performer: Show-Ready On and Off Stage" with burlesque performer Anita Tension.

Performing can be stressful enough - don’t let disorganization add to the chaos. Behind every polished performance are systems that keep costumes, props, music, and media in order. This lecture explores practical strategies for organizing the many moving parts of a burlesque career—from studio storage and costume management to packing show kits and navigating crowded green rooms. Participants will learn methods for preparing for performances, maintaining an “oh shit” emergency kit, and streamlining post-show unpacking. The session will also cover digital organization, including managing photos, contracts, bios, and performance materials. Ideal for performers at any stage of their career who want to reduce stress, save time, and build sustainable systems that support their creative work. No materials required.
