Blues and Burlesque
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
“enthralls the audience… a triple threat talent”
Broadway World (4 stars)
“Blues and Burlesque is the perfect combination”
Edinburgh Reviews (4.5 stars)
“Simply named and confidently performed, it’s safe to say this cabaret double act does what it says on the tin. The pairing of the energetic singing, dancing, stripping performer Belle de Beauvoir with the casual, always-seated-behind-a-wall-of-keys musician Pete Saunders (Dexy’s Midnight Runners) delivers on both parts of the bargain, leaving you desperately wanting more.”
