      <image:caption>Hailee is from Toronto and began pole dancing in 2023. This piece is more than movement, it’s her story. A chapter of her life shaped by addiction where she lost her way, her hope and herself. Finding her way into an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting led her to the support that helped her choose life. Who we were does not define us, but it leaves its mark. As you watch, I hope you feel the truth of this story and remember change as possible, even when it feels out of reach.</image:caption>

She values fun, learning and teaching safe progressions in her classes and values silliness and playfulness in her performances. She started her performance journey in burlesque about 10 years ago, which she hopes will shine through today and hasn’t rusted up too much! This is her second time on the competition stage and she hopes her sweaty hands don’t fail her today!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Program</image:title>
      <image:caption>The duality of man and woman. Masculine pride meets feminine magnetism. When he folds, she flourishes. A tale as old as time. Drawn from Iryss’ lived experience within the strip club, this piece reflects a dynamic where strength and vulnerability exist side by side. Men who appear powerful, rich, and composed are given permission to unravel in the feminine presence of softness, beauty, and attention. This piece honours seduction as an art form, a language, and a mirror~one that reveals both sides. Because in the end, power isn’t lost, it’s simply exchanged.”</image:caption>

I am so very excited for my first ever Pole Theatre experience and I wish to bring all the comedy and entertainment I can to the stage. I'm hoping the audience can relate to and enjoy my performance as much as I enjoyed preparing for it.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In the heart of Mexico City, where the streets are always alive with music, movement, and passion, two dancers meet at the iconic Zócalo — a place where street artists and urban performers gather to share their talent with the world. Every step, every beat, and every trick is a chance to captivate the crowd and earn the applause — and maybe a few coins from passing strangers. Tonight, Mony and Sora bring that vibrant energy to the stage. Each dancer has her own unique style, rhythm, and personality. Through playful competition and mutual challenge, they push each other to dance harder, bolder, and more authentically. What begins as a clash of styles transforms into a powerful fusion of movement, friendship, and love for Latin music. Get ready to experience the electrifying rhythms of norteño huapango, electro merengue, and reggaeton as Mony and Sora take you on a journey through colorful Mexico. Enjoy!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>"The goddess Circe breathes in freedom as she experiences independence for the first time. Banished to a secluded island due to her refusal to conform, she now delights in exploring her body, power, and raw nature. She builds identity beyond the confines of social expectations and the patriarchy, coming closer to herself and her divine feminine magic. Through her potions and spells, illusions are stripped away, exposing the fragility beneath the rigid structures imposed on women. Circe stands tall as the archetype of defiance, agency, and transformation."</image:caption>

After years of many medications, different treatments, forms of therapy, and multiple hospitalizations, nothing worked. For years, crossing the line between despair and healing felt impossible.

The move brought anxiety, uncertainty, and fear, especially around the friendships Mallory holds so deeply. She made a conscious choice to remain present in those relationships through conversation, creativity, and small, intentional moments. To honor the people who continued to show up for her from afar, Mallory chose to dance to their voices. The music and vocals featured in this piece are a compilation of friends from across the United States. Though distance now separates them, their connection remains strong.</image:caption>
