SEPIA JEWEL: SAN DIEGO'S SEDUCTRESS OF SLAY WITHOUT BORDERS; AN AGELESS AWARD WINNING INTERNATIONAL SHOWGIRL DRAPED IN POWER ONE DAZZLING SELF MADE COSTUME AT A TIME
Episode 8
Saturday, 29 March, 2025
Sepia Jewel was no stranger to the stage before her burlesque life! Singing in an all female rap group signed onto Epic Records and designing costumes while dancing for the San Diego Ebony Elite's are just a few items on her resumé (include mother, daughter, wife, and friend). It wasn't until 2016, Ms. Jewel was watching the movie Burlesque that she realized she needed to get back to the stage. At 55 years old, she trained under Coco L'Amour with the Pixie Stixx and from there, the force she possesses couldn't be stopped. Quickly becoming an award winning international showgirl, she soon realized the rhinestone life was aligned with the art therapy she was looking for. 9 years later, Sepia Jewel shows us what it means to be a Black burlesque performer and queen: no age, no location, no *nothing* can stop you.
