Winner: The DollHaus
instagram.com/thedollhaussatx

This marks the second year San Antonio’s vivacious The DollHaus has won Best Burlesque Troupe. Cultivating a cult-like “if you know, you know” backroom vibe, the troupe has gone even further underground since the closing of the Havana Hotel, their main venue for performances and early evening workshops. Describing themselves online as dark, moody, vulnerable and unapologetically real, one need only check out the tantalizing images on their Instagram account to see what all the excitement is about.
