"Next was the classic Cesar Romero Joker by Katherine Lashe of Atlanta, Georgia. She's producer of Syrens of the South  and Southern Fried Burlesque Festival. What I liked about this number is that it took risks. First, it was funny, it wasn’t classic burlesque in the glam sense, but more in a commentary sense as if to say: “Why so serious?” The sound level was low, making the storyline of the song hard to follow, however, if I recall, it was about having a nervous breakdown as she stripped out of a straitjacket in a neon green wig and the classic 1960s clown makeup. It truly was a nice break and stood out to me as being done by someone who really wanted to do her comic book character justice with no thought to the fact that it was not only a non-glam piece, (though the glam girl in me appreciated the fabulously sparkly purple suit) but she was cross-dressing to a degree as well. To that I say, well done!"

Burlesque lets its "geek" show at Dragon*Con - Examiner.com

"The threat of tornado wins did not deter a room full of fans to await another rambunctious evening of burlesque.  With host Katherine Lashe full of one liners in a smoking red dress moved the show along."

"Hostess for Syrens of the South Katherine Lashe was also a pleasure to watch.  Her mix of humor, allure, and sarcasm resembled the lounge lizards of the past, but she brought the style back to life."

"Lashe perform(s) a rousing, 21-gun, "Jell-O in an earthquake" tribute to the troops that could compel even a pacifist to enlist."
