What people say about Indra!

"And then there was the more-than-hospitable Indra and her Brother (or so they said, but there was some tension in the air), who kept the audience enthralled with their wit and their hermaphroditic costumes."

Meghan in Music, Half Man Half Clothed Woman review of Vancouver Legion show, September 12, 2006

"Daring and versatile enough to cross boundaries...an uncanny ability to wreak havoc with our expectations. "

Rita Felciano, San Francisco Bay Guardian, July 19, 2006

"Retro Hollywood strip tease and song...she does a great Dietrich"

Joyce Slayton, SF Weekly, March 2-8, 2005

"The standing room only side provided most of the whoops and cheers for the burlesque performers as the Indra sang a sultry number..."

The Chronicle, Lisa Hix, Sunday, December 19, 2004

"...the Indra, performs as everything from a dog to Marlene Dietrich (you really do have to see both)...She is extremely flexible, showing not only a flair for charming silliness but an effective singing voice."

Pat Craig, Contra Costa Times, September 14, 2004

"lovely...a local burlesque legend.."

The Wave, September 8-21, 2004, V04, Issue 19

"Whether poured into a custom-made latex dress or strutting across the stage in a glamorous reinterpretation of 40's burleque divas like Sally Rand or banana skirt wearing Lola Falana, Indra always looks fabulous. Her character range includes everything from outrageously realistic drag king suit and tie outfits, as well as 90's fetish supermodel styles. For Indra, fetish becomes more performance art than merely sexed up stylized presence. It's all about the glamour, the development of a whole character and the art of seduction........... She's more than just a pretty face. Her signature vocal stylings are reminiscent of Marlene Dietrich.... She's a class act you won't want to miss!"

-The Spectator, August 27-Sept 2, 2004

"Once again, The Indra thoroughly dazzled the SpeakEasily patrons with her gorilla striptease (Insert "going bananas" type joke here) AND led her now-famous Mile High Body Count Apache Dance starring the 2004 Olympic Apache Team (hurray Chris, AKA Dirty Pierre). Like any good Shakespearean death scene (thanks for that analogy, Joe), there was a nice pile of bodies at the end. At this point, it's like "who cares about the audience.we just want to get stabbed by The Indra and play dead!" The Indra always goes the extra 10 miles with her creativity! I'm such a lucky bastage (farging ice hole?) to know her!"

-Audra Wolfmann, Speakeasily Proprietor and Mistress of Ceremonies , August 25, 2004

"DeeDee Luxe and The Indra were the burlesque babes, stripping down to pasties in solo numbers and then getting their see-through wifebeaters soaked. The water spilling down their delicious thighs was a wonderful finale!"

-Eros Guide Las Vegas

"Burlesque's capacity for both the ridiculous and the entertaining is unmatched....Solo performer Indra sings "Come on to my house and I'll give you candy," while offering an audience member a candy cane from her cleavage--only to be exaggeratedly dismayed when her bra comes out with it...'s tendency to step beyond general boundaries has won her fans, including Anderson of Kitty Kitty Bang Bang. 'What she does onstage is just completely bizarre, in the guise of something really lovely.' She adds, 'Being on the edge is definitely important.' "
Call Board Magazine, Theater Bay Area, February 2004

Polly Pandemonium:"A dancing singing sensation!"

Paul Nathan: "I love watching Indra sing."

Kitten on the Keys: "Indra should add 'merkin wrangler' to her list of talents!"

SFvaudeville.com:"dangerous, mysterious, entertaining"

Autumn Carey Adamme: "Indra needs me to put on her eyebrows so she doesn't look like an alien."

Zombie Pinups: "She is deadicated to serving not only her country, but also her fellow man . . . on a plate! Her gaze is mesmerizing and her touch . . . explosive!"
