From ballroom to burlesque this performer has been dancing since she could walk.

When she’s not carving out curves with her hips, you can find her producing sold out shows. She is the founder of Diosa de la Luna entertainment and the producer of Melanin Magic, an all BIPOC burlesque r***e. Callers, eat your heart out. It’s your brown eyed v***n, the spicy mami of burlesque, miss Hazel Nuez, joining us in Candy Land!

Introducing the first special guest at Candy Land: Get ready if you ain’t ready, because she’s a shirt show! Revel in the experience of the Chaotic Dynamo, Holly Shirt!
Thanks to the power of ADHD (and the audacity of belief in ones self), Holly is the multi-hyphenate mega babe of your wet dreams. With an extensive background in everything from dance and design to dinosaurs and Dave Grohl, Holly is sure to know a thing or ten. When Holly’s not being weird on stage she’s being weird somewhere else... you can find her in front of the stage with a camera in hand, backstage with her trusty clip board or behind the scenes as producer for Shirt Show Productions.
Putting the s*x in Dyslexia since August 2020, Get swept away in her whirlwind of sparkle… Holy s**t it’s Holly Shirt!
