I am the Costumer at the largest costume shop in Western Washington. I maintain and construct costumes for this company. I also do custom work. I recently completed a costume for Sanaki, and Medieval styled garments for a bride and groom. www.perfectpartycostumes.com I'm also the costumer for Zenzi, a Seattle burlesque troupe of six performers. Zenzi performs a type of Burlesque that you might call "meta-burlesque", introducing short film segments to enhance the live performances. Their performances thus offer more complete storytelling with character and plot development. It's more like a multi-media storytelling experience with lots of fishnet stockings.

I watched a great burlesque show last night, and will go to more shows any time I can!

7 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoDoes anyone else think that Zahi Hawass is really annoying?
Zahi Hawass is Egypt's "Secretary General Of The Supreme Council Of Antiquities". You've seen him on various Discovery Channel shows. He's the guy who dominates camera time, stating either things that are completely obvious, or sometimes making statements that contradict a comment that a previous expert just made.
I really enjoy reading about the archeological finds in Egypt. I just wish that the official spokesperson wasn't such a buffoon.
