MC - Gemmi Galactic - Austin, TX

This silly space babe lives in a glittery vortex of scifi, horror, fantasy, and fetish!

Gemmi Galactic landed her Mothership in Austin, TX in 2010 where she studied under Coco Lectric at the Austin Academy of Burlesque. She has been performing clever and geeky burlesque, full of fun characters, sensual and silly storytelling, and a neo-classic blend of styles ever since.

She founded Frisky Business Burlesque in 2012, Co-Founded the Geekgasm Revue in 2015, and was a cast reader, turned producer, of the Austin Naked Girls Reading from 2013-2015. In 2016 Gemmi was an Austin Chronicle “Best of Austin” Finalist for Best Burlesque Performer. She began teaching at the Austin Academy of Burlesque in 2018, and started The Galactic Salon in 2023.

Gemmi has performed in 19 U.S. burlesque festivals and cosplay conventions, and is now the Co-Producer of the prestigious Texas Burlesque Festival.

Setting pasties to STUN, this scifi sweetheart will make you say “Hubble, Hubble!”
