Follow on Google News | Dancer Earns World First PhD - In Burlesque!One of the world's top tier burlesque dancers has become the first to perform the vintage art for a Doctorate of Philosophy
By: Lola The Vamp Lola has been performing burlesque since her debut as an auditionee for Dita Von Teese in 2002. She pioneered the return of the vintage art in her home country of Australia and regularly headlines the world's top burlesque events. Lola supported Nick Cave and Grinderman on their 2007 Australian tour. Nick Cave described her show as 'beautiful'. The Age described her shows as possessing 'a highly developed aesthetic and a sly wit, super sexy without ever being tawdry, Lola is in a league of her own'. Her PhD comprised of a written thesis and a creative component which included her performances. These combined creative degrees are relatively new for post-graduate degrees. Two independent assessors from different universities gave their feedback on the submission. Of course, now the central question is, what DID she west beneath her graduation gown? Winkeyface.
