"MY BIGGEST FANS"
This routine is a male take on traditional burlesque. It serves as a proper tribute to the classic fan dance and striptease of yesteryear as well as to legendary girl group, the Spice Girls. A balance of both comedy and sexy in a fun and vibrant routine.
The music is set to the instrumental of the Spice Girls' closing track on their sophomore album SpiceWorld, "The Lady Is A Vamp" and includes all of the reveals! First performed in 2018 in Los Angeles, CA.

"cuba libre"
A vibrant and grandiose uptempo striptease with political themes and surprise reveals. This is a special tribute to Tito's Cuban culture and family history. It is a call for freedom for the people of Cuba who have been under a strict and unrelenting dictatorship since the 1960s. Costume and reveals designed by the iconic Mr. Gorgeous. First performed August 2022 at Tiki Oasis in San Diego, CA.
Set to the music of Gloria Estefan’s “Cuba Libre.”

"FREE BRITNEY"
A tribute to the circus and the iconic Britney Spears. As the ringmaster of this one ring cirque du so gay, Tito teases and taunts with props galore. Dancing and making his way out of his pants and into your hearts under the big top. First version was performed in August 2019 in San Diego, CA.
Set to the music of Britney Spears' "Circus."
"ROBIN'S DREAM"
Inspired by Tito's undying love for Batman, this routine is a very queer parody of the 1960s Boy Wonder, Robin. Set to "Teenage Dream" by Katy Perry.
In August 2019, Tito & his boylesque inspiration, Bazuka Joe, created a duet of the dynamic duo for DTLA Proud. That version is set to the song "(I've Had) The Time of My Life" from the film Dirty Dancing. First version was performed in September 2012 in Knoxville, TN.
"Gcpd"
What would it look like if the Joker did a burlesque routine? Featuring nods to the Jokers of cinema past including Cesar Romero, Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, Joaquin Phoenix, and Mark Hamill. Also performed as Commissioner Gordon. 😜

"THE TIN WOODSMAN"
As it was for many, The Wizard of Oz was Tito's first favorite film. Inevitably, this routine was created & performed as the first male burlesque act in the history of Devil's Playground Burlesque for their Wicked Oz show. It has also been showcased in shows throughout the country.
The act is set to the song "Midnight City" by M83. First performed in April 2016 in Los Angeles, CA.
