Talloolah Love, dubbed “The Sweetest ‘T’ in the South” knows how to put on a show! She is the producer of “Talloolah Love Presents”: a series of burlesque shows including the recent AnachroCon show “The World's Fair Exposition” and upcoming "Rue Du Paradis" at Atlanta's High Museum of Art in March. The moderator of the Atlanta Burlesque and Cabaret club, Talloolah Love beat out 45 competitors from over the world to be the fan's #1 choice to participate in the competition for Miss Viva Las Vegas 2011 this April.

Her goal for this year, was to produce something new, taking her inspiration from the Follies, Betty Grable, Busby Burkley, Jerry Lee Lewis, and current magnificents such as Armitage Shanks, Onca O’Leary, and Amber Ray. With her “Talloolah Love Presents” series, she elevates glamor and eclecticism to a new level and brings them together in a perfect “Love fusion.” She hopes you will come along for the ride!

Besides producing, she is a passionate performer.  She began performing for talent shows and school productions at a young age. Later in college she took acting classes, but did not find her real art form until she discovered burlesque. In burlesque, he found her home.  The form of expression, and the embracing quality of the community, were exquisite to her, and after almost 9 years, she’s never let go!

After about 7 years of experience, Talloolah began to formulate classes.  She wanted to teach other ladies and gents this form of expression in a way that made it all accessible.  Acknowledging the fact that in a community so established as Atlanta’s, the desire to break in to the business can seem overwhelming and scary.  She wanted women (and men) to know that society’s cookie cutter norms of beauty and what is art doesn’t extend to the burlesque stage.  She feels that knowing your roots, where burlesque came from is as important as knowing how to build your own pasties! Whether you want her to do a workshop, panel, or private lesson, she’s here for all your teaching needs!

She invites you to bask in the glitz and glam of her burlesque world.  Then, if you’ve a mind, jump right in and let it all hang out!  Hers isn’t yo’ mamma’s form of Southern hospitality, hers is one of a completely different animal entirely! ME-YOOoooW!!!
