THE PRODUCERS

Marlene von Steenvag
​
Marlene von Steenvag is internationally known as Germany's queen of burlesque and is considered the European counterpart to Dita von Teese. With her background at the East 15 Acting School in London and her international network of world-famous artists, she brought the burlesque scene to Berlin, from the small Salon Kokett to the big festival. Based on the success, she subsequently founded the Berlin Burlesque Academy and Berlin Burlesque Agency.
