It's currently my burlesque performer name, but I've used it previously as my stage name when doing other types of performing too. I have a lovely memory of my Father (who died when I was young) looking up at the stars and telling me the poem:

"Star light, star bright, First star I see tonight, I wish I may, I wish I might, Have this wish I wish tonight"

So my name is inspired by that memory :)

Introducing myself! :) My stage name is Starla Bright. I’ve been using that name for one type of performing and another for 12 years now so I’m very attached to it. I’m based in Sheffield which is super convenient as it’s right on the M1. I would sum up my performer style by saying cheeky, funny and rockin’! I admire SO many amazing burlesque people, but if I’m choosing just three I’d say Fancy Chance, Abigail Collins and Anna Fur Laxis. In this group I’ll like to see links to great articles and blogs about burlesque. Hints and tips are always great. I’ve been performing all my life but I never stop learning! :)
