This event is an uproarious evening of tremendously witty, dangerously frisky and oddly eccentric antics and acts handpicked from the festival’s hottest stars and London’s premier circles.
Hosted by the King of lyrical carnage, Mr. Desmond O’Connor (winner of best lyricist in the 2007 MTM:UK Fringe Awards) and featuring London’s favourite Vaudeville duo, Pustra & Vile-een, international burlesque stars, Sirens of stage and an assortment of nostalgic musical treats, the show is guaranteed to tickle more than just your fancies.

Furthermore, amidst the choreographed mayhem and magic, there will be a prestigious contest in the name of glossy weird-world favourite, Bizarre Magazine, who are searching for wacky and inspiring people.
With strategic ‘insider’ advice from Scots agents Rhymes With Purple, this Battle of Burlesque is a war of wits where pre-selected and talented contestants take to the stage to battle it out for supremacy and prizes! The winners will also go on to perform at the Bizarre Ball, London set for 10th October.
Be part of this riotous, theatrical milestone in new world of variety!
