Burlesque is a theatrical art form that combines elements of comedy, dance, and music, often with a focus on satire and parody. Historically, it originated in the 19th century as a form of entertainment that mocked and exaggerated social conventions, literary works, and high culture. Burlesque performers frequently use costumes, props, and exaggerated characterizations to entertain audiences.
