MICROAGGRESSIONS
Image by Jon Beckley
WINNER: Judge’s Choice “Glitoris” Award at Alterna-TEASE 2016
SELECTED TO COMPETE IN: 2017 Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend, "Best Debut"
This act fuses a classic costume with a neo-sensibility in order to speak out against the microaggressions that people with disabilities face on a daily basis. On a projector screen behind her, Jacqueline displays ableist statements that have been said either directly to her or her disabled friends. While these larger-than-life words attempt to steal focus, she battles against them with an aggressive and sexual striptease that defiantly takes power back. The conflict between screen and performer replicates the dissonance felt by many people with disabilities as they fight to remain self-assured within an ableist world.
Note: Jacqueline can supply projector and screen if necessary.
GLORY BOXX

WINNER: 2023 PNW Burlesque Festival Monarch
SELECTED TO COMPETE IN: 2022 Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend, 'Miss Exotic World,' Queen of Burlesque
In this classic-style slow burn act to a deliciously sleazy neo song, Jacqueline appears in all white on her wheelchair throne. She teases with a feather fan that turns into an impressive shoulder harness and uses her wheelchair’s brakes to remove her gloves.
CONFIDENT

WINNER: 2nd Runner Up at The 2017 Golden Legend Champion Challenge
SELECTED TO PERFORM AT: 2018 Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend, "Movers, Shakers & Innovators Showcase"
This neo-burlesque act set to Demi Lovato's "Confident" is energetic, acrobatic, and powerful. Jacqueline inverts, snaps, pops, and pulls three kinds of splits in black fishnet and emerald green feathers and lace. This act was developed under the mentorship of burlesque legend Gabriella Maze for the 2017 Golden Legend Champion Challenge.
TIN TIN DEO

WINNER: 1st Runner Up "Superfly at the
What the Funk Festival 2023
A joyful celebration of Puerto Rican heritage, Jacqueline Boxx performs in an outfit that is entirely leopard print and black and alternates between quick and vibrant dance moves and slow and playful teasing removals. The music is instrumental Latin funk that encourages dancing. This act is dedicated to Jacqueline’s Abuelo who fought through the legal system for the rights of Puerto Rican immigrants. The music he played always made her want to dance.
SEE ME IN A CROWN

This frightening and sensual act is set to Billie Eilish and incorporates an outfit entirely made of black vinyl. Rhinestone claws are sharpened, an audience member is sacrificed in blood, and booties are slammed on the stage.
BLUES COMBO

This classic burlesque act using Jacqueline’s wheelchair is seductive and prowling in all tones of blue, from fur-trimmed robe to chiffon panel skirt. Jacqueline invites you to join her in a celebration of the sensual and evocative power of blue and the blues, a color which speaks to her personality. She indulges on stage and invites you to indulge as well.
EVIL QUEEN OF THE WORLD
Image by RJ Johnson
As a modern version of Snow White’s Evil Queen Grimhilde, Jacqueline appears first in her throne-outfitted wheelchair. She dominates the audience with aggressive musicality and sensual floor-work, reminding them why she is the “f**king king of the world.” Towards the end of the act, she discovers her mirror and becomes entranced with her own image, making the final moments a self-appreciation and a spectacle simultaneously.
BALLERINA'S BOOTS
Image by Dorret Oosterhoff
What does a ballerina get up to backstage? In this act, Jacqueline portrays a ballet dancer rebelliously enthralled with her own sensuality, and her own feet. Despite a traditionally white and fluffy exterior, she reveals black vinyl fetish boots and leather undergarments and finishes with a reveal of her bare feet. She reaches up towards them as the light fades away, focused inward instead of on the audience.
NOTE: This act can be transformed into a Christmas act by the addition of the Nutcracker Suite onto the beginning of the track or be performed as is.
PROFESSOR X

This nerdlesque act was originally done as a duet in the Seattle burlesque play Burl-X-Men: Days of Future Ass. However, as a solo act, Jacqueline directs her movements towards the audience instead of Jean Gray and assures them that she knows exactly “what’s on [their] mind.”
JUNO
Image by Sally Stardust Photography
Set to Sabrina Carpenter's hit track of the same name, this act features Jacqueline romancing a gigantic pink boa while dressed in pink and gold sparkles. This is a dedication to sensual sapphic longing and alternates between cutesy and downright dirty. Jacqueline's power chair moves swiftly across the space as the boa flips around her.
ALWAYS2
I've collaborated with fellow disabled performer Sally Stardust multiple times under the group name "Always2." We love to perform and travel together. If you're interested in booking these acts, just get in touch via the "Contact & Booking" tab.
SIRENS
Image by Devon Rowland
This is a very queer duet between two sirens. We are dressed in all black and hot pink with coordinating wheelchairs. Our costumes are not identical, but perfectly coordinated so that we are wearing the same colors on different items of clothing. For example, Jacqueline is wearing a black panel skirt while Sally is wearing a hot pink panel skirt. We are also wearing elaborate horn headpieces to sell that we are threatening creatures. Both Jacqueline and Sally use their manual wheelchairs in this routine, resulting in seductive and dynamic chair work throughout the act. During the routine, we alternate between seducing and threatening the audience with our movements until we finally turn our focus to each other at the end. Our ultimate reveal is wheelchair scissoring. We end the act in each others’ arms, looking out at the audience in satisfaction.
KUROMI/MELODY

FEATURE PERFORMERS: 2025 The International Nerdlesque Festival
In this duet, Jacqueline portrays Kuromi from the Sanrio universe while Sally portrays her bestie, My Melody. Many Sanrio fans, us included, firmly believe that Melody and Kuromi are actually girlfriends, and our act is about just that. The act begins with the song “I Really Like You” by Carly Rae Jepson, with us on either side of the stage. We are both in character-themed lingerie and nighties, with ear headbands for our respective characters. We’ll start by miming being on the phone with each other while we hug pillows representing the other character. Melody is hugging a Kuromi pillow and Kuromi is hugging a Melody pillow. The first half of the act is themed around nervous sapphic longing - an experience that we both identify heavily with as bisexual performers. We will toss the phones aside and break the physical barrier between us, flirting more as we get closer. The song will transition at the bridge into “Fuck Up the Friendship” by Leah Kate, which signals a mood shift in the act. Things become sexier with floorwork as we remove each others’ costume pieces. The act climaxes with our signature move.
FEMMEBOT
Image Screen-Captured
This act is a cheeky nod to the femmebots from Austin Powers set to “Femmebot” by Charli XCX ft. Dorian Electra and Mykki Blanco. We are dressed in 60s style pink babydoll nightgowns with 60s bob wigs, thick white headbands, silky white gloves, and coordinating pink heels. On our legs we have silver sequin leg braces, a glamorous nod to our disabilities. We begin the act in position, sitting in our wheelchairs in cute pinup poses. The first verse is by Charli, where Jacqueline breaks her pose and dances robotically while Sally stays locked in position. When the chorus hits, Sally joins Jacqueline as we dance in unison. We do the same choreography each chorus, nodding to the fact that we are programmed femmebots. The second verse is by a nonbinary performer Dorian Electra, where Sally dances robotically while Jacqueline stays locked in position. Having a nonbinary performer (Sally) perform to the verse sung by a nonbinary musician in a song about femmebots is our own political easter egg that thems can be femmes, too. During the rap bridge, we come out of our wheelchairs and do floorwork in unison while removing our nightgowns. We enjoy a sexy body roll moment with each other, and then sit back on our chairs for a dramatically slow and sexy bra removal in unison. We reveal pasties that look like the titty blasters from Austin Powers, repeating our chorus choreography. At the end of the act, we power down.
