Matching Tongues and Altitude

This weekend, Trixie Little and the Evil Hate Monkey were married. Aerialists, acrobats, comedians, and burlesque sweethearts, they've been flipping and stripping (as they put it) together since 2002.

Here they are performing in the Sunday night Icons and All-Stars Spectacular at the Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend in Las Vegas. It's always a pleasure to see aerialists in a venue that can accommodate the height and breadth of a strong and skilled act; here, high above the large stage in the Orleans, they are completely at ease together. And, of course, hilarious and irreverent, as always.

Shooting up in to the lights is a problem that comes with the territory. I've done several stages of color correction here to lift and clarify their faces, which results in a lot of loss of vibrant color in the costumes - well, they were mightily backlit; it's the nature of the beast.

Best of all things to the happy, high-flying couple, in all the years ahead.
