Real Burlesque finds Edinburgh!


I've been to see Burlesque before, and what I've been given is a bunch of students trying to be provocative whilst actually remaining all too safe within the own confines of the boundaries they have set for themselves in everyday life. There is Nothing safe about this production!
With a female cast that had me torn between feeling over whelmingly aroused and like a pervert, this is a show that makes no firm contract with their audience about what the 'rules' are. Enjoyable? If you’re a man certainly - but the darkness within it is offered to all and when you leave, you will have seen Burlesque as it's meant to be. Dark, erotic, confusing, challenging, sexy and horribly beautiful.


4 Stars General - 5 stars within the Genre!

I was offered the chance to see this show but sadly missed it. Although I did cover almost all of their activities in promoting it on the High Street.
My review of their promotional work. Outstanding.
