Dance company Ostara Productions makes its debut this weekend with “The Revival: A Burlesque Renaissance” at Brock’s Smirking Goat, 504 Main St., Lewiston.

Lindsey Smalley, who directs the show, and Lois Moree, producer and choreographer, started Ostara a year ago, Smalley said, and have been working with dancers for the show since January.

Moree took inspiration for the choreography from the 2022 movie “Elvis,” mixing traditional style dance with new elements, to soul, rock ’n’ roll and country themes, Smalley said.

“There’s quite a bit of variety as far as the music goes,” she said. “There’s something for everybody, for sure.”

In keeping with traditional elements of burlesque, the show also incorporates comedy, including a stand-up comedian who will do bits between a couple of the numbers.

“The Revival” is at 7 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays through April 27. Tickets, $25-$300 for a VIP table, are at bit.ly/BrocksRevival.
