Matt Knife first appeared with us in the (co)-WEBurlesque production Peep Show, the Siouxsie and the Banshees burlesque show Viktor Devonne co-produced with Plucky Charms, and became a regular participant in RockBar NYC showings in January 2015.

Matt Knife is the producer of Homo Erectus Boylesque NYC, the only burlesque show (as of January 2017!) to be hosted monthly at the national historic landmark, namely the Stonewall Inn (home of the 1969 riots, and known generally as the spiritual birthplace of the gay civil rights movement).

Matt Knife has toured internationally, from London to Vienna, and all over the US as a burlesque/boylesque performer, educator, and producer.

In 2017, he was recognized by Viktor Devonne as the first Brother to WEBurlesque, for his support of the show at RockBar NYC during the year of 2016.
