Interview with Mr. Pariah in ECHO Magazine
”...once you’ve been accosted by his particular brand of hyper-intelligent satire mixed with avant-garde costume pageantry… He’s a bit like a male version of Bjork, only minus the annoying bits and cutesy affectations. “
- Jessica Price Burlesque Seattle Press
“The Talents of performers Sassy Delure, Ophelia Moore, Paris Original, and The Luminous Pariah have created a show that brings the art of tease, dance, and performance art into a smorgasbord of visually stimulating and thought provoking Neo-Burlesque acts. “
- Leah Simpson Express.co.uk
“Haunting and poetic, this artistic performance is the highlight of Seattle’s touring troupe’s burlesque/boylesque show.”
- Leo Owen Fluid London
“My favorite part of The Luminous Pariah’s routine, though, is when he walks off stage. His strut is a harmonious blend of feminine sway and masculine swagger…”
- Kate R Laughing Medusa
“Finally there was the closing number, and I do not exaggerate when I say it took my breath away. The Luminous Pariah switched out of his MC persona and came onstage in an elaborate bird of paradise costume. His choreography was perfect, starting out tranquil and slowly ramping the energy up until every member of the audience was hooting and hollering at the top of their lungs. The Pariah is incredibly talented, and his finale made that abundantly clear.”
- Oren Ashkenazi Culture Mob
“In addition to the lighthearted parts of the show, the beauty of boylesque/burlesque that many fans seek is fully present in GAZM’s show.”
- James Whitely Seattle Gay News
”...Luminous’ stunning final entrance as show reached its end, The Red Light District eloquently manifested the multiplicity of masculine sexuality.”
- Jessica Price Burlesque Seattle Press
“Electric Burlesque certainly blurs the gender boundaries and showcases some spectacular costumes and inventive choreography…”
- Leo Owen Fluid London
“His comedic timing, showmanship and daring would be enough make him amazing.”
- Fosse Jack The Scarlet Curtain
