Greg Caswell/The Masculinity of Burlesque

Burlesque isn’t just for women and Greg Caswell and his band of “boylesques” are trying to change the way you look at high heels. Greg is the founder of the all male burlesque troupe, Man Up, who not only empower themselves with their high heels, but show a different kind of masculinity. One that they feel works to show off their own vulnerability, and in their words, take back the high heels. I was very lucky to speak with Greg on my couch so he could share his journey, from young boy to Man Up!

If you want to get a chance to check out the men of Man Up go to manupyeg.com for all their latest shows. The women you heard at the start are from the renowned burlesque troupe, Capital City Burlesque. They are holding their regular Christmas show “Santas Gone Wild” on December 17^th. Check em out, they are a blast!
