Dr. Sketchy Wellington took part in the New Zealand Burlesque Festival and while we were there we took a few photos. New performers at the NZ burlesque festival We had a lot of fun, caught up with old friends, met some amazing new people, had two kick-arse Dr. Sketchy sessions (one with burlesque superstar Jo Weldon) and spent the weekend in fabulous clothes. Highlights include: Having Michelle Parish from Hamilton Dr. Sketchy over in Wellington, swapping Sketchy secrets and sharing ideas. Wellington’s hostess Rachel is looking forward to heading up to Hamilton for their Sketchy in April. Also meeting some of Hamilton's movers and shakers. Watching the fabulous Jo Weldon perform as well as teach a few classic moves. Jo teaches at the NZ burlesque festival Putting on a Sketchy session in the expo.

Meeting Jo and her sexy man Mr. Jonny Porkpie they both rocked our socks off. Their grace, charm, humour, tenacity, passion, talent and generosity is truly an inspiration. Can't wait to see them again.
