BerlinLovesYou.Sheila_Wolf.PhotoByElsaQuarsell

A walking piece of art, she blurs the line between male and female, fantasy and reality, queer icon and happily-married-heterosexual-dad-of-a-tween-daughter. It’s hard not to stare at her breasts, especially since they are often entirely visible in the sheer mesh dresses she favors, capped with jeweled nipple pasties. Most women … Read more Sheila Wolf, Keeping Berlin Cabaret Queer

Since then, I’ve seen the Salon zur Wilden Renate transformed into … Read more The House of Red Doors #6: CIRCUS

anja-pavlova-1

Maybe you’ve seen her on burlesque stages in Berlin, looking like she emerged from one of Jay Gatsby’s legendary parties: all kinetic arms and flailing legs, a 21st century embodiment of a gin-soaked, high-kicking, rouge-kneed flapper.
