Cosplayers

The Burnt Courthouse is a dynamic, multi-award-winning, queer cosplay duo; breaking down barriers and preconceived notions about what a married cosplay pair "should" look like.  Made up of Dat Ashe Cosplay and Court's Cosplay, both are passionate about cosplay, ballroom dancing, and stage performance, sharing their love of these on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Both are also very open about their respective experiences with their disabilities, gender identities, and more. The two have been guesting, educating, and performing, both solo and together, across the U.S. and soon, internationally! Ashe, with his 14 years of cosplay experience, and Court, with their nine years of cosplay experience, are always open to educating curious and respectful minds!
