Scarlett Snow (given name: Miranda) is a North Carolina grown, Florida raised, New York City transplant. She’s built her career with a foundation of classical dance training and molded herself into a tiny, fiery, modern burlesquer and LGBTQ entrepreneur. Working within nearly 100 percent queer establishments across the East and West Coasts, Snow’s projects are flourishing. Her troupe, Honey Burlesque, which she described as “the gay girl gang of nouveau burlesque,” is made up of mostly LGBTQ ladies who only perform in queer community spaces. In addition to Honey’s monthly residency with gay party staple Hot Rabbit, Snow introduced a new night for LGBTQ womxn fondly named, “Dip Me in Honey.” The troupe’s party now has a monthly spot at Bizarre Bushwick, with plans to expand their parties to more queer spaces across the city. “For me, these parties are more than just parties,” Snow says. “They are safety, expression, and so filled to the brim with love it’s insane.” In her line of work, Snow feels fortunate to see people who are not out in their everyday lives being able to live freely. “Even if it’s just for a weekend or a couple hours at a gay, little shindig. Those moments are so precious, and I’m just happy I get to be a part of them.” Up next: catch Snow dancing throughout New York City with Honey Burlesque, in Florida with Les Vixens & Pandora Events, and in California at The Dinah. —DT
