Tinsel Tease

Drag Performer

Known as the “ShowGal of NorCal,” Tinsel Tease is an entertainer, designer and personality embodying a glamorous vintage aesthetic without the vintage values. An award-winning costume designer whose credits include HBO Max and Paramount+, Tinsel builds her own dazzling wardrobe by hand, ensuring every performance is a bespoke masterpiece. Tinsel is a fierce champion for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC artistry, bringing the heartbeat of the resistance to every stage she graces. From the neon heat of the Sin City Burlesque Festival to the jazz filled history of New Orleans’ Teaser Fest, she has proven herself to as an elite strip tease artist – who happens to be in drag. Tinsel Tease is proud to be self-producing a New Year’s Eve Burlesque Extravaganza this year, hosted at the historic Jean Runyon Little Theater inside Sacramento Memorial Auditorium, December 31, 2026.
