Bio
Explode with laughter, gasp in exhilaration, and lose yourself in the titillating world of Moonshine Sunshine! Affectionately dubbed “Mother Nature's trashy little sister,” this Palestinian cunning linguist gyrates across stages all over Turtle Island; a dumpster fire of upcycled costumes swirling around a body fluent in raunch & ridiculousness.
Moonie embraces every hue of the human spectrum with a special kink for misfits. Whether working the pole like a desert storm or slinking across a sticky bartop like a mischievous feline, she commands attention with her wild spirit & alluring presence.
She is the producer behind Trash Can Cabaret which debuted in 2019, headlined The Flamingo Revue in Charlotte, NC in 2023, 7-time Voix de Ville 'Monarch of The Mountain,' and semi-finalist in Playboy's 2022-23 model search competition.
Meet burlesque's very own Mama Trash, Moonshine Sunshine!

Background
Moonshine & her naughty bits have been gracing multiple stages throughout the US & Canada for six years & counting!
She began training in dance, theatre, and gymnastics at an early age, and continued her career as a competitive gymnast throughout her teens. She was a member of her high school's drama troupe, "Palace Playhouse," for three years, and was later inspired to start performing burlesque while bartending at Comedyworks in Montreal, Canada.
Her official start in the sparkly world of striptease began at the Arabesque Burlesque academy around 2017, and her first ever tassel twirl occurred on The Wiggle Room stage for the academy showcase on June 28 of 2018.
The Moonshine Movement
Beneath the sparkles & frills, a deep commitment to eco-justice blooms. Her costume closet consists of vintage gems & upcycled masterpieces, breathing new life into (sometimes literal) piles of trash. With every stitch, she weaves stories that come alive onstage to reveal the sexy, silly, spectacular human experience here on Earth.
