Showtime Studio opened its doors at the start of the season, based within the Patchwork des Arts dance school in Montignies-sur-Sambre.
Showtime Studio is a place where you can give yourself permission to shine in the spotlight. Through regular burlesque classes, students learn to develop their stage presence and discover new facets of themselves. These sessions are led by local Charleroi-based performers Ambrosia Starr and Lady Red Charm.
The curriculum includes introductions to working with feather fans and boas, exploring theatricality, and mastering the "Carollywood Showgirl" revue style.
More broadly, Showtime Studio serves as an academy for cabaret arts, welcoming everyone regardless of gender or skill level. In addition to regular classes held on Mondays and Thursdays, the studio offers workshops and intensive courses in other areas—such as drag, mime, and various other stage performance disciplines—often taught by internationally renowned guest artists.
