Creative Loafing Charlotte


Big Mammas House of Burlesque is the epitome of a classic Burlesque, Vaudeville, and Variety Show. Every time those stage lights come on our performers will astound, amaze, entrance, entice, challenge, treat and tease you. We strive to achieve the highest quality shows while giving you live entertainment that you could even invite your mother to (if she dared).

You will laugh, dance, dream and sometimes participate in our dynamic shows. And when you finally leave us, you'll wish you could do it all again tomorrow.

So Do We...

"Big Mammas" brings classic vaudeville and burlesque to Charlotte's theatre and arts community with class. We provide a stage where anyone can showcase their myriad of talents whether they be comedy, dancing, singing, sideshow acts, Magic , spinning plates, rollerskating while being pulled by two pink poodles wearing a funny hat while hula hooping the the strains of In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, or just about anything anyone can think of. Long gone are the days of the Variety show. We intend to change that.

If you're tired of the bass thumping, shoulder bumping, flashing lights at your local meat market you can come and enjoy something you wont regret or forget in the morning.

How Do I TIP the Performers?

Burlesque performers aren't strippers. So waving a dollar at a girl is more likely to insult her than anything else. Most troupes will find creative ways for you to tip. We may also put a group tip jar in a central location, like the merchandise table, for you to drop off your tips. We love you and thank you for letting us perform for you.

Thank You for supporting LIVE ENTERTAINMENT!
