Jac Bowie
Profile
Jac Bowie has become a name synonymous with classic style and the self made modern business woman. Jac is internationally renown as the leading agent and producer in Burlesque performance, and on the way has ignited massive media interest with her interesting story and personality.
A single mother of 2, Jac has successfully built an empire around the old fashioned art form of burlesque striptease, producing a number of high profile regular events in Sydney & Melbourne as well as her national Burlesque Ball tour. In the process, she has become a poster girl for 1940’s-1950’s stylings, and an advocate for classic glamour, and the revival of the raunch culture and striptease. An ambassador for empowering women to be glamorous and fabulous and give them the inspiration to get their dreams and aspirations.
With her media and public appearances increasing, Jac would like to utilise her growing profile and make a much desired entry into a full time media career.
