Queer Chicana starlet Chica Boom takes off more than just her sombrero. This bordertown chica destroys the gringo hetero empire by day and tantalizes audiences with her vibrant drag and strip-tease by night. Senorita Chica Boom has been seductively weaving her cultural and sexual identity through burlesque, alternative dance, theatre and street performance across nation. She has toured the United States and Canada with Burlesque dancers from all over the US.
Chica Boom's provocative posturing shakes and breaks the mold of submissive mestiza. Her sexual and cultural hybridism gives voice to an intentional revolutionary style of performance that depicts her duality of consciousness, with one foot in Mexico and another in Gringolandia. She is the quintessential Xicana Marimacha Mistress, she'll dance her way into your corazon and leave you caliente!
Chica was crowned with the prestigious title of Ms. Gay Latina 2005 and 2006 and has appeared on numerous publications featured not only as a burlesque performer and also for her contributions to radical woman of color organizing.
