Description

Following sell-out runs in Edinburgh, Perth and Adelaide, this award-winning live music cabaret is back with a brand-new show. What happens when a libertine jazz reprobate meets a supernova of the modern striptease? Blues and Burlesque. With original music by Pete Saunders (Dexy’s Midnight Runners) and the showgirl striptease of Belle de Beauvoir (‘The sparkling diamond of burlesque’ (BBC Radio Sussex)), this stellar showcase promises to put variety back on the map, with clandestine guest appearances from cabaret legends and raucous rising stars. 'The blues are soulful, burlesque thrusting and the comedy plentiful’ (BroadwayBaby.com).

Blues and Burlesque have become something of a Fringe fixture, achieving a sell-out run of shows last year.
