Back to black burlesque
Haute Cocoa is a Nashville-based burlesque artist with two years of
stage magic and a lifetime of dance behind her. Trained by the
legendary Kim Bustible, she’s carved out a bold space in the neo-
burlesque scene—where classic technique meets unapologetic edge.
Her performances celebrate Black femme power with magnetic
presence and fearless creativity. From Asheville to New Orleans,
Cocoa’s been lighting up stages across the Southeast, and she’s
always ready to bring the heat wherever the spotlight calls.
