Hurrah for the belly! Acclaimed belly dance performance artist Z-Helene takes the stage at The VORTEX with her powerful and playful one-woman show. In celebration of our fabulous bellies, she blends belly dance with theater, percussion, comedy, burlesque, and song— talents she has honed over a remarkable 69 years.
But what about the "other parts?" In addition to her belly, Z-Helene explores different aspects of herself. Part exhilarating performance, part candid memoir, she delves into themes of physicality, sexuality, self-acceptance, and the complexities of identity.
With a mix of risqué humor and genuine vulnerability, "MY AWESOME BELLY! ...And Other Parts" invites audiences to open their minds and expand their hearts. Prepare for a flamboyant evening of laughter and reflection that promises to make you feel good!
