SAUCI CALLA HORRA

Founder, Executive Director

Picture
Sauci Calla Horra is the Founder and Executive Producer of The Toronto Burlesque Festival. She is also a proud member of Skin Tight Outta Sight Rebel Burlesque, “Canada’s Outlaw Strippers since 1998.” Since her debut performance on Valentine’s Day 2002, Sauci has graced stages all over North America, including the Burlesque Hall of Fame in Las Vegas, Burlesque Festivals in NYC, Montreal, Boston and Vancouver, and large-scale shows in Los Angeles, NYC and across Canada. Sauci is known as a charismatic chameleon. Her performance style ranges from classic and graceful, to punk rock, to just down right wacky! Social worker by day, burlesque vixen by night, Sauci used her community development skills to start The Toronto Burlesque and Vaudeville Alliance in 2003 and has been extensively interviewed by media for her role in the development of the Canadian burlesque scene.

BROOK ALVIANO
​Director of Communications

Picture
For over seven years, Brook Alviano has found a home in the Toronto burlesque community, creating leading edge costumes from classic to the extravagant. Since she’d much rather talk about other people than herself, the role of Director of Communications was an easy one for her to fill. When she’s not buried under tulle and satin in her Thunderdome Studio, she’s chasing her young son around and liking all your posts about the Toronto Burlesque Festival. Use #TBF2019 and she’ll find you on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.

CHARLIE QUINN
Graphic Design & Misc Media

Picture
Known as “The Quintessential Player,” Charlie Quinn is our maverick jane-of-all-trades, designing all of our promotional assets, editing and archiving our images and videos, advising on strategies, and coming up with innovative solutions on the fly.  Simply put, we’d be toast without this local burlesque superstar and her arsenal of skills and savvy.
