Bat City Bombshells

Since 2009, the Bat City Bombshells have grown from a small group of hobbyist dancers into a powerhouse troupe of dedicated burlesque performers, polishing their shimmy, shake, and tassel-twirling prowess along the way. Known for variety, each Bombshell brings a unique performance style and personality to the stage—from sultry and glamorous to the delightfully unexpected. Together, they honor the rich traditions of burlesque while continually pushing the art form forward with fresh creativity. The Bat City Bombshells are the recipients of Best Group Routine at the San Antonio Burlesque Festival, have been featured performers at the Texas Burlesque Festival, and were finalists in the Austin Chronicle's 2026 Best Burlesque Troupe Readers' Poll. Dedicated to artistic growth, community, and collaboration, they are passionate about celebrating and elevating the art of burlesque both on and off the stage.
