•  Support Very nice and well-restored. What did "burlesque" mean in Victorian England? A little bit of stocking was shown and funny double entendres were spoken? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:04, 6 May 2023 (UTC)

  It was more a style of comedy, from what I can tell from reading Gilbert's explicit burlesque scripts. Parody of other shows, with lots of big jokey moments and leaning into tropes. Adam Cuerden (talk) 04:28, 6 May 2023 (UTC)

  That's still a valid use of "burlesque". Daniel Case (talk) 17:53, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
