The July 2005 Looking Glass Issue's Coming
Special Events that might make a big difference in your career as an Exotic
Entertainer
To
all entertainers asking me, "how do I start featuring or get in a magazine?"
It's time to stop talking about it and jump in. Start participating in a few
contests, go to a few feature talent showcases. Watch the professionals perform
and get to know them.

Talent Agencies will often showcase several or more of their
feature entertainers at a hosting club which will benefit from the increased
traffic the feature entertainers provide. These clubs are often club chains
which can further benefit from the close look they will get of the visiting
features some of whom they will book for their own featured events. Features
typically pay their own travel and other expenses to these feature showcases,
gambling that they will be able to line up road trips with the visiting club
owners and managers they will be meeting and dancing for at the hosting club.
So why should some of you house dancers be interested in a feature showcase?
Simple...You will have the chance to meet the owners or chief talent scout
of the agency close and personal.
In the middle of November, 2001 I was Pure Talent's photographer
at their Feature Showcase at Regina's in Springfield, Missouri. Ten to fifteen
club owners showed up to watch the features perform here and every club made
at least one booking. A house dancer from one of the St Louis Metro East Clubs
followed me to the event. She was able to meet the owners of Pure Talent and
the club allowed her to do a special set for them. Some of the Regina's house
dancers interested in featuring were able to meet the owners of the agency
and have special photography done both for the agency and magazines catering
to the exotic dancing industry. This event will be covered in more detail
in a later issue of the Looking Glass. My stories and pictures are now being
published in both "Exotic Dancer's Bulletin" and "Xtreme Magazine".
Schools of Dance
Pure Talent School
of Dance offers its highly regarded program that prepares aspiring
dancers for what is expected of them as feature entertainers.
Since the world of house dancing is as different from Featuredom as
apples are to oranges, the school of dance could well make the
difference between success and failure in an entertainer's career as a
feature. So check out the Pure Talent web site below for more
information on their School of Dance.
Universal Talent
has its school of dance, but it's run a little differently. Here
house dancers aspiring to become features can work in Universal Talent's
own Club, Frank's Chicken House in Manville, New Jersey and earn money
as they learn the ropes of featuredom. To learn more check their
web site out below and give Eleanor a call.
