Dora Scompiglio, IT

Dora Scompiglio si appassiona al Burlesque e lo vive come l’espressione più rappresentativa di se stessa ispirando i suoi act al suo solido passato maturato nella ginnastica artistica e nella danza moderna, rinforzato con la pratica del mimo, della recitazione e della giocoleria. Introdotta a questa arte della sensualità dalla famosa performer italiana ed internazionale Grace Hall, sua ritrovata amica di scuola, Dora sviluppa il suo alter ego traendo ispirazione dal suo percorso mimico teatrale unitamente alle movenze danzate, creando delle performance del new burlesque che esaltano il proprio modo allegro, appassionato e spensierato di vedere e percepire il mondo che la circonda.
