A truly unique and OUTSTANDING hour of body positivity and women’s empowerment! A show that shines a light on the many ridiculous stereotypes surrounding bigger bodies and leaves you feeling like your best self.  

The incredibly talented matriarchs of Perth’s burlesque scene, Dee Dee Luscious and Sugar Du Joure, have clubbed together to develop this sensational show that you Simply. Must. See. 

Dee Dee sets the scene with a hilariously relatable inner dialogue and Sugar Du Joure’s quickly follows this act with an entertaining and (unexpectedly!) sexy burlesque routine that sets the tone for what lies ahead. These curvy queens are joined by a provocative plus-size cast - Amelia Kisses, Dollar Dazzler, Ida Ocean, Lacy Lustre and Ronnie Rum Punch - who all lead the audience on a journey of self-discovery and a celebration of self-expression. 

Spicy routines are of course at the forefront of this bootylicious burlesque show with each dancer owning the stage and owning their bodies.  There are comical moments of pantomime from Rhys Suscitation whilst Dee Dee’s impressive vocals pull at your heartstrings – bring a tissue or two for this act! A special mention also goes to Dollar Dazzler who shows us that you don’t have to wear French lingerie to be sensual and sexy.  

From start to finish this show maintains an electric atmosphere and has the audience eager for more… and more! Each performer is as amazingly talented and gorgeous as the next. The choreography is flawless and the flow is maintained throughout since even the stage kittens have their own amusing interludes. You won’t want to miss a single moment. 

Bring your mates, bring your mum, bring your man and bring your missus! Everyone needs to see this show!
