Timeline

1953

Margaret Dragu (born 1953) is a Canadian dancer, writer, performance artist and feminist.

1971

From Calgary, Dragu moved to New York in 1971, where she began working with Alwin Nikolais, Murray Louis, and the Laura Foreman dance company, as well as members of the Judson Church.

Her work with movement evolved to include elements of "burlesque, tap dancing, flamenco, and theatre."

In 1973 Dragu moved to Montreal where she began a lengthy career as a striptease artist.

1975

She taught classes in aerobics and strip at the A Space gallery.

The short lived strippers' union was called the Canadian Association for Burlesque Entertainers.
